Trademarks
We assist companies in selecting appropriate trademarks, trade names and logos by
conducting trademark searches, determining whether a proposed mark is registrable
with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, filing and prosecuting federal
trademark applications, and maintaining those trademarks once registered. We
represent parties in trademark oppositions and cancellations before the Trademark
Trial and Appeal Board.
Intellectual Property Licensing
We advise owners of trademarks, trade secrets, and copyrights on the best method
of licensing these valuable assets. We draft and negotiate IP licenses, and advise
trademark licensors on potential franchise and antitrust implications of their licenses.
