Kroub Kolmykov PLLC — d/b/a K2K Law — is an intellectual property boutique for clients who require more than traditional IP litigation. The practice integrates courtroom advocacy, claim-centric analysis, and data-driven strategy across the entire patent lifecycle.
The firm is led by two founding partners, each with over 25 years in patent defense and enforcement, with complementary depth across high-technology and pharmaceutical / life-sciences matters.
Pharmaceuticals and life sciences to software, wireless, semiconductors, and AI-driven systems.
Proprietary Technology
Diligence at machine scale. Judgment at partner level.
K2K runs its own proprietary AI patent-diligence engine — custom-built in-house and refined on live monetization campaigns. Every U.S. patent in a portfolio is scored against a multi-dimensional rubric spanning legal exposure, technical merit, market adoption, and enforcement posture — calibrated to the current PTAB discretionary-denial regime and checked against live litigation data.
Portfolio triage — every asset scored, tiered, and rankedClaim-level analysis — risk decomposition with partner review

Claim-level AI analysis
Claim scope and construction risk, §101 and §112 exposure, prior-art density, and prosecution-history red flags — assessed to district-court and PTAB standards.
03
Live litigation signal
Venue analytics, PTAB outcome data, and funder-grade damages screens, refreshed as the law moves.

Patent Monetization
A patent portfolio is an asset, not an expense.
We help operating companies, inventors, and funds convert patents into revenue — structuring the vehicle, the capital, and the risk transfer behind every monetization, from pre-suit diligence through resolution. Monetization is a sequence of decisions: what to assert, how to structure it, who funds it, and how the risk is carried. We run every step.
1
Diligence & Valuation
Map the portfolio against external markets — engine-scored, partner-confirmed.
2
Portfolio Sorting
Separate defensive patents from the ones that earn — adoption, term, family depth.
3
Structuring
In-house campaign or dedicated vehicle — we build either, and say which fits.
4
The Vehicle
A holding structure evaluated for rights, control, financing, and retained obligations.
5
Capital
Non-recourse funding from leading patent funders — planned at the start, not month nine.
6
Risk Transfer
Assess available coverage, exclusions, cost, and any financing implications.
7
Enforcement
Milestones that move the deal — filing, Markman, IPR survival, summary judgment.
8
Returns
Model the allocation of fees, financing, and proceeds across different outcomes.
