Cullen Taylor helps life sciences companies structure and negotiate their most complex agreements, particularly those involving the development, acquisition, and commercialization of intellectual property and technology. Cullen takes a practical, results-oriented approach to transactions, drawing on his broad experience to anticipate and address problems before they arise.

Cullen handles a variety of transactions within the life sciences industry, including product acquisition, licensing, research and development, collaboration, co-promotion, supply, and distribution agreements. His clients include pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies and device and diagnostics manufacturers with products and therapies at all stages of development.
