Intellectual property can represent some of an organization’s most valuable assets. But maximizing that value requires more than simply securing intellectual property rights. Businesses also need an internal strategy for identifying, protecting, leveraging, and preserving their intellectual capital while reducing potential legal and business risks.
On September 24, 2026, Preovolos Lewin, ALC and ACC San Diego invite you to join us for “Mitigating Exposure, Maximizing Asset Value: An Internal IP Blueprint,” a program designed to help organizations take a proactive approach to internal intellectual property management.
The webinar will take place from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM PDT and is free for ACC members, non-members, and non-member in-house counsel. California attendees may also be eligible to receive 1.0 General CLE credit.
Building an Internal Blueprint for Intellectual Property
Intellectual property is more than a legal consideration—it can be a critical business asset.
This presentation is designed to help organizations proactively maximize the value of their intellectual property while reducing the risks that can arise when valuable intellectual capital isn’t properly identified, documented, or protected.
Attendees will learn practical approaches for identifying, protecting, leveraging, and preserving intellectual property as part of a broader business strategy.
For in-house counsel and organizations managing valuable intellectual assets, developing a thoughtful internal framework can help turn intellectual property management from a reactive legal function into a proactive component of long-term business planning.
Meet the Speakers
The program will feature two attorneys from Preovolos Lewin:
Scott McPherson is a California attorney, fractional general counsel, and registered patent attorney with more than 20 years of experience spanning legal compliance, intellectual property, employment matters, litigation, contract negotiation, corporate governance, and regulatory strategy.
His background includes serving as General Counsel for both publicly traded and privately held growth-stage companies, serving as first or sole in-house counsel, working as a member of in-house legal teams, founding an intellectual property law practice, and managing complex intellectual property portfolios and litigation strategies.
Raisa Soares Leal focuses her practice on complex business disputes, trust and estate litigation, intellectual property, and cross-border matters. Over a legal career spanning two decades, she has played significant roles in sophisticated disputes involving multimillion-dollar claims and settlements, substantial factual and evidentiary records, and matters where legal, financial, and business considerations intersect.
Her experience also includes working with experts and witnesses, navigating complex discovery, and helping shape litigation strategy from motion practice and settlement negotiations through trial.
