Our Firm represents international and national clients ranging in size from multinational corporations to sole proprietorships in all areas of trademarks and trade dress. Our IP attorneys prepare opinions concerning the potential strength and ability of proposed trademarks, trade dress and service marks to be registered. Our attorneys file applications to register trademarks and service marks with state agencies, with the United States Patent & Trademark Office, and with foreign Trademark Offices, and we prosecute those applications before the appropriate offices. The IP Group represents clients in administrative proceedings, such as cancellations and oppositions, prepare and defend trademark cease and desist letters, and litigate trademark and trade dress infringement claims, domain name disputes, and cybersquatting proceedings.

We arrange trademark watch services for monitoring client marks; bring and defend domain name Uniform Dispute Resolution Procedures and anti-cybersquatting actions. We advise our clients in connection with the protection of trade secrets, trade dress, trademarks, service marks and other legal matters relating to our client’s branding strategy and intellectual property, including patent litigation and non-infringement opinions.
