INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SERVICES
Patent Prosecution
We work tirelessly with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to ensure patent protection for your unique invention through effective patent prosecution. During the patent or trademark registration process, an examiner at the USPTO will review your application to determine eligibility. We fight relentlessly for our clients before the USPTO and have a strong history of cooperation with the examiners, ensuring the best outcomes in both patent and trademark matters, while also being prepared to assist with copyright litigation when necessary.
Patent, Trademark, and Copyright Litigation Support
IP infringements take many forms, including patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets. If someone is manufacturing or selling your invention, or using your trademark without permission, you have legal recourse available through copyright litigation or patent prosecution. A claimant has a right to sole benefit from their invention or mark, so don’t delay when seeking remuneration through proper trademark registration.
IP Portfolio Management; Licensing of All IP Rights
Intellectual property portfolio management involves overseeing a collection of IP rights to effectively protect them. This not only helps in safeguarding your assets but also provides a competitive market edge and enhances ROI (return-on-investment). By utilizing an IP licensing agreement, you can grant another party permission to use some or all of your IP rights, such as patents or trademarks, for a specific period in exchange for a fee or royalty, all while retaining ownership. This process can also relate to patent prosecution and the intricacies involved in copyright litigation, as well as ensuring proper trademark registration.
Trademark and Copyright Registration

Trademark and Copyright Registration
Copyrights and trademarks protect different kinds of creations. Generally, copyrights safeguard creative or intellectual works, while trademarks cover commercial names, phrases, and logos. For trademark registration, you would register under the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, whereas copyrights are registered by the U.S. Copyright Office. In cases of copyright litigation, understanding the nuances of these protections is crucial, just as patent prosecution is important for inventions.

Trademark and Copyright Registration
IP clearance is the process of checking whether intellectual property owned by others may impede you from getting your patent or trademark registration. Essentially, we would search domestic and foreign patent and trademark databases to ensure you have the best chance of success with your new IP, while also being mindful of potential copyright litigation that could arise during patent prosecution.

While Product Clearance allows us to check if your product is eligible for patent prosecution, we understand that clients with existing inventions and patents may have concerns about their options in situations involving copyright litigation, or if they themselves may have infringed on an existing patent. We are here to put you at ease and provide you with the best answers for your unique situation, including guidance on trademark registration.
