Our biotech startup engaged Duncan Greenhalgh at Goodwin to navigate a critical licensing agreement for a novel diagnostic platform. From our initial consultation, it was clear we were dealing with a specialist. Duncan’s deep knowledge of both patent law and the biotechnology sector, underscored by his recent recognition in those fields, was immediately evident. He didn't just review the legal clauses; he understood the underlying science and its commercial implications, which was invaluable. His drafting was meticulous, protecting our intellectual property while ensuring the agreement was workable for future development. The negotiation process was handled with a strategic calmness that instilled great confidence in our team. The one area where we occasionally wished for more was in response time during particularly busy periods; sometimes follow-ups took a day or two longer than ideal. However, when we did connect, his attention was complete and his advice was always worth the wait. For any life sciences company in Boston facing complex IP or transactional matters, Duncan’s eight years of focused experience make him a formidable and highly recommended advocate.
