Does IP Insurance Cover Patent Infringement?

Some IP policies cover patent disputes; defense and enforcement may be separate, and the patents and territories must be listed.

IP insurance may defend your business against a patent claim, help enforce your own patent, or offer both through separate options. The policy may limit coverage to scheduled patents, products, and territories.

List the patents and products involved. Confirm defense and enforcement scope, foreign claims, limits, retention, and insurer approval requirements before relying on the quote.
