Our Capabilities

From biologics and small molecule therapeutics to advanced diagnostics and gene-editing platforms, our attorneys understand life sciences technology and our clients’ businesses. Our attorneys have graduate and undergraduate degrees in biology, chemistry, biochemistry, and related disciplines, as well as technical backgrounds and industry experience in pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, genomics, proteomics, diagnostics, and digital health platforms.

For our clients, this means faster comprehension of complex technologies, strategic guidance informed by deep regulatory knowledge, and efficient execution that accelerates time-to-market while controlling costs.

Corporate and Finance

In addition to working with large multinational corporations and midsize businesses, we help entrepreneurs establish new businesses from the ground up. As your company grows, we can handle its day-to-day legal affairs, including employment matters and contracts. When it comes time to raise capital, we can structure and negotiate angel and venture investments. We also represent investors, and in appropriate circumstances can leverage that experience to provide our clients with strategic advice and introductions.

Protecting Technology and Brands

Young Basile provides turnkey solutions for acquiring and protecting intellectual property assets. Our experience in this area includes patent prosecution as well as freedom-to-operate studies and transactional matters. With over twenty attorneys registered to practice in the US Patent and Trademark Office, we have prepared and prosecuted thousands of patent applications across a wide range of life sciences technologies and helped our clients establish strong brands through trademark applications. We can also help our clients capitalize on less expensive forms of IP protection, such as copyrights and trade secrets.

Commercial and IP Litigation

Our technical experience is invaluable in effectively handling technology-related litigation. We serve as lead counsel in complex IP litigation nationally, and we are a firm of choice for partnering with larger firms on litigation to provide depth of knowledge in sophisticated technology issues, drive down cost, and leverage knowledge gained from our prosecution and strategy work.
