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

Cullen is skilled at structuring and drafting contracts that address these concerns while keeping the client's business goals at front and center.
Cullen focuses his practice primarily on the life sciences industry, where he handles a variety of transactions, 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. Cullen is often called upon to advise such clients on discovering, developing, and acquiring cutting-edge therapies and innovative technologies.
