Intellectual property/patent diligence

I've recently gone under LOI with a company that has a number of patents that are important to its competitive position. I'm wondering if anyone has experience conducting diligence on patents post-LOI and would be able to share best practices on how to manage this part of the process and/or could recommend providers that might make sense to contact for a lower middle market transaction (i.e. will be relatively cost-effective). Thanks in advance for any insights!

Hey Matthew! I've worked in the IP space at various points in my career. I could recommend a few individuals who might make sense for this if the other folks in this thread don't work out. Feel free to reach out directly.
