Intellectual Property Insurance (IP Insurance)

What you need to know

What is Intellectual Property Insurance?
Intellectual Property Insurance allows you to insure your trademarks or other intellectual property rights to cover the expenses in suing for infringement. To secure Intellectual Property Insurance, you’re required to prove you have concluded an intellectual property search or have filed a registration for a trademark, copyright or patent.

Who needs Intellectual Property Insurance?
Intellectual property is protected by law in most countries. And now, more than ever before, claims involving infringement of patent, copyright and trademark are being filed and litigated at a tremendous cost to both parties. If you own or have filed a registration for a trademark, copyright or patent, intellectual property insurance is a smart investment.
