Securing protection for all types of intellectual property assets

Our attorneys provide guidance for all aspects of intellectual property protection. We prepare and prosecute domestic and foreign patent applications, and we represent clients in the preparation and negotiation of technology research and development agreements.

We obtain copyright registrations and counsel clients regarding trademark issues in advertising and product packaging. We help clients implement business practices to protect trade secrets, including nondisclosure agreements and non-compete agreements. We also represent clients who are acquiring, licensing and transferring intellectual property assets to and from other companies.

Effectively handling intellectual property infringement litigation

Protecting your intellectual property portfolio is an essential step to minimizing intellectual property litigation, but even a perfectly executed intellectual property strategy cannot prevent all litigation. When necessary, we prosecute and defend against claims of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret infringement. We also represent clients in unfair competition lawsuits and protect clients against the theft of intellectual property.
