Thread: render patentability

Can anyone please make out something from this passage? It beats me, especially the fragment on rendoering patentability

"The firm has a large & diverse transactional patent practice. You agree that no conflict of interest is presented when, on behalf of other Firm clients, we render patentability, infringement and validity opinions regarding, and advance patentability arguments over, patents and/or parent applications owned, licensed or controlled by you but not handled by our law firm."

They presents to their clients their opinions about possibilities to obtain a patent, about possible violations of other patents and about possibilities to contest the validity of the obtained patent. If you are their client and have a patent or patent application handled by their firm they won't share their opinions about that particular patent with other clients. If you are a client but has patents not handled by this law firm they can consult other clients about those patents.

thank you, that makes it so much clearer
