Our IP Protection Services Cover:
Patents
Patents provide indispensable strategic protections for innovative businesses and inventors.
Trademarks
Securing and enforcing trademarks can improve a business’ market share, promote brand recognition, generate licensing income, and boost goodwill.
Copyrights
While works become copyrighted when they are fixed in a tangible medium, formal registration of copyrights provide owners with very important leverage should copyright infringement occur.
Trade Secrets
U.S. businesses lose an estimated $300 billion every year to intellectual property theft, including trade secret breaches.
Right of Privacy
The collection and use of individuals’ personally identifiable information (PII) is a critical issue in today’s information age, and legislatures are enacting new government regulations governing how businesses may use PII.
