It pays to invest in evaluating and mapping the situation in the early stages.

A trial is a lengthy and expensive process that requires a considerable amount of human resources. Before entering a trial, the company should perform a thorough mapping of the risks and opportunities involved in the situation.

Before a novel product or service is launched into the market, it should be examined whether the novel activity perhaps infringes an exclusive right granted to somebody else in order to avoid litigation. The validity of disturbing exclusive rights and the activity of the holders of the rights in the field should be investigated.
