Our trademark attorneys have decades of experience handling some of the highest profile trademark matters with extraordinary results. Our experience spans a wide range of industries, including computer software and other technology, consumer products, entertainment and media, fashion, financial services, and pharmaceuticals. Our lawyers are frequently called on to provide strategic advice on how best to protect, maintain and enhance valuable intellectual property assets — including building brands and businesses — on a worldwide basis.

Our lawyers represent corporations and individuals in all phases of litigation, from obtaining and defeating initial TROs and preliminary injunctions through final appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court. We understand litigation and formulate legal strategy with the client’s business interests in mind. When it comes to trial, our trademark lawyers actually try cases and win them. In addition to federal and state court litigation, we also have experience conducting trademark prosecutions as well as complicated inter parties matters before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB) and trademark-related investigation proceedings before the International Trade Commission (ITC).

Licensing

We have extensive experience representing both patent licensors and licensees in patent licensing agreements. Accordingly, our lawyers understand the business and legal issues from both perspectives, as well as from the perspectives of third parties who may have a vested interest in the license relationship, particularly suppliers and customers. In addition to negotiating definitive license agreements, our attorneys are experienced in negotiating other commercial arrangements that are often implemented alongside of patent licensing deals, including joint development agreements, supply agreements, and services/technical assistance agreements.

We also assist clients in strategically managing their patent portfolios to maximize the value of their technology, generate revenue, or gain competitive advantage. Our attorneys have extensive experience representing both licensors and licensees of intangible assets and attendant intellectual property rights. We have experience with licenses with complicated aspects, such as for mission-critical technology or intangible assets with significant commercialization potential. We recognize the driving business and legal interests of both the owners/licensors as well as the licensees, which are frequently aligned but can occasionally diverge depending on the nature of the licensed asset, its potential use and commercialization cases, and the relative economic and time horizon positions of the parties. We are also skilled at identifying and planning with respect to the impact of related areas of law on licenses, including tax, antitrust, and bankruptcy laws.
