Disputes involving intellectual property are complex and can quickly become contentious and costly without property counsel. Our attorneys have years of expertise advising clients involved in litigations matters related to:
- Patent infringement or interference
- Trademark or service mark infringement
- Opposition and cancellation proceedings
- Deceptive business practices
- Copyright infringement
- Unfair competition
- Misappropriation of trade secrets and confidential information
- IP-related anti-trust issues
- License agreements
- Employee contract disputes and actions
While successful litigation verdicts are always a great result, our attorneys also know that many times, avoidance, negotiation, settlement, or licensing are sounder strategies than protracted and expensive litigation. Knowing that, we produce strategic results that are designed to work for each client’s situation and needs.
