Join us for Part 3 of the IP Valuation in Special Situations webinar series, led by IP valuation expert and LES Board member, Efrat Kasznik, as she explores how IP is identified, valued, and divided in divorce proceedings. With approximately 50 percent of all U.S. (first or second) marriages ending in divorce, the proper identification and allocation of all marital assets is critical. Tangible assets, like bank accounts and real estate, are relatively straightforward to identify and value. On the other hand, IP assets, also referred to as “intangible assets,” are much more difficult to identify and value. As a result, patents and other IP assets in divorce cases are often treated as an afterthought or are completely ignored. Using real-world case studies, Efrat will go over the steps for identifying and valuing intangible assets in divorce cases, what are some of the unique challenges when it comes to documenting the timeline and ownership, and what are some creative solutions for bridging the gap between the parties.
