Description:
Software, content and media licensing is a primary focus of my practice (see [Redacted] profile at [Redacted]) and represents about 70% of my work. I also work with early stage companies through all stages of formation, growth, capital raise and exit. Properly structuring licensing agreements requires close attention to detail and thinking through the various means of distribution and use. Your posting clearly indicates you have done a lot of planning and that will serve you and counsel well.
But just as your detailed note indicates, the drafting and negotiation of so many moving parts can be challenging from a cost standpoint. I have negotiated license agreements with companies large and small, including [Redacted], [Redacted], [Redacted], [Redacted], [Redacted], [Redacted], [Redacted], [Redacted] and others. Since I do not use an associate, you get experienced legal support without double billing. That is more efficient and far more predictable. It sounds like a very interesting engagement and I would be pleased to discuss it with you without obligation.

This project looks interesting, however, I am not licensed to practice law in Colorado. You should know that licensure is state-specific when you review any other responses to this query.

Description:
WHY YOU ARE DIFFERENT AS A CLIENT: You have a product that must be protected. [Redacted] in its brand, image, purpose, and function must be protected as it works its way from creation to application and particularly during distribution. This is done, in part, through licensing agreements, but those agreements are only a part of the overall operation of your business.
[Redacted]: We are a niche law firm based in the Midwest. We work only with products and product manufacturers, distributors, and retailers, all of whom have licensing, manufacturing, and vendor agreements. Our clients are located in several states and do business in many countries.
OUR RELEVANT EXPERIENCE: We understand these agreements, how they are similar across different entities, and how they differ. You should be charged for differences in agreements that change the legal basis of the agreement between the parties, but you should receive an "economy of scale" for documents and parts of documents that are simply repetitive. Further, we have experience with digital media applications.
OUR APPROACH TO YOUR WORK: First, understand your product. Second, understand your business model. Third, provide you legal services over time that are efficient, cost effective, and add value to your own work. This last part, "add value," must be a measure that makes a material, monetary difference in the operation, sales, or direction of your business.
OUR RATES: Principal $XXX/hr Director $XXX/hr Associate $XXX/hr. Most importantly, our rates decrease as you use our services over time. Because our approach is to first know your products and your business, we recognize a discount for a client that choses us as their go-to lawyer for a fixed period, such as a year or two. In this way, our rates decrease as you use our services. I can give you a one-page example about how this works.
WHY WE ARE DIFFERENT: First, we understand the supply chain of products from creation to application, including their distribution. In its own way, your app fits nicely into this supply chain. Second, we work with clients in many locations across the country. Third, our lawyers have big firm experience but we do not charge big firm rates or have the pressure to bill big firm hours. We are excited to be considered for this work, and we extend an invitation to a face-to-face meeting at our expense to discuss the above items further. Thank you for considering us.

With over 15 years in IT prior to gaining my Juris Doctorate and becoming an attorney, I have a better understanding than many attorneys about incorporation of IT jargon with legal jargon. Should I be acceptable to you for this project (I am only licensed in Massachusetts), I could start work on this by the iddle of next week. Price is negotiable.

I specialize in negotiating agreements and in I.P, both of which are involved here. I also have a background of some 15 years writing software, and two engineering degrees from MIT. I would not recommend drafting agreements in advance, but rather to approach prospective licensees and propose to them what in general you visualize. What will sell for you is realistic value propositions put in writing. Writing agreements comes after making agreements, and I would be happy to help. BTW, take a look at my book on negotiation, [Redacted] and at my background [Redacted]. My rate on this work would be $XXX/hr. Thank you.

Description:
Hello - I have over ten years experience with start up and growth stage
companies primarily in the technology area. I also currently work with a few
media clients and work on licensing and other documents for companies in this
area. As I am well aware of the budget concerns of companies in this phase, I
have started a "membership" arrangement where companies choose a plan that fits
their needs and budget. They then commit to a monthly rate that is locked in to
deliverables rather than time. No hours are tracked which encourages my clients
to stay in touch so we can more effectively work together. I hope to hear from
you soon. |

to assist you starting [Redacted]. Based on your post, however, it appears that
you need more immediately assistance. Please review my website and let me know
