Brand Protection

The law is complex when it comes to brand protection and protecting yourself as the holder of intellectual property or protecting yourself against a claim of infringement can be a complicated matter. We understand the importance of protecting your trademark, trade name and other characteristics that distinguish you and uniquely identify your brand. We are prepared to take all reasonable steps to protect your brand throughout the life of your company, from registration and prosecution of trademarks to enforcement actions to prevent or stop infringement, dilution, counterfeits or other attacks on your brand. To discuss a strategic plan for brand protection or for aggressive action in the face of an existing threat, contact our offices for immediate assistance. Our attorneys are experienced litigators ready to handle any infringement action as plaintiff or defendant.
