Intellectual Property

Our firm’s integrated intellectual property team can help you make the simple and seamless transition from planning and protection to asserting trademark claims and defenses in court or before the United States Patent and Trademark Office. If you are accused of unfair competition or trademark infringement from another company, we’ll review your case and vigorously defend you and your business. And if someone else infringes on your intellectual property rights, we will send cease and desist letters and fight to receive judgments against them.

If litigation is required, we will be with you at every stage of that litigation, explain your options, and help you to understand the process. We are also adept at litigating claims under the Lanham Act, and keep up to date on the current trends in trademark law so that we can find creative and modern solutions to protecting your rights.
