When two parties enter into an intellectual property licensing (IP) agreement, it is not uncommon for disputes to arise regarding licensees using IP outside the scope of a license agreement. Such cases can result in IP litigation that can be extremely costly, and anybody with a possible IP dispute should quickly seek the help of a Texas intellectual property lawyer.
One of the major questions many people struggle to answer is whether a violation constitutes a breach of a license agreement, infringement of IP rights, or license infringement. A licensing agreement typically outlines the terms and conditions for the use of IP as well as the compensation a licensor will receive from a licensee, and a licensee who fails to follow the terms of the contract can allow a licensor to hold the licensee accountable.
