Intellectual Property

O Our Intellectual Property practice works closely with clients in every field of business.

Our Intellectual Property practice works closely with clients in every field of business to develop and protect the copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and other intellectual property interests they own or utilize.

Transactional and management services provide companies the tools needed to identify their intellectual property assets, develop policies and procedures to protect those rights, and structure transactions to make the most of their interests.

When clients face intellectual property theft or must defend against claims of unauthorized use, our team of litigation and intellectual property attorneys works closely with the client to resolve the conflict efficiently and restore value to those assets.
