Intellectual Property (Copyrights/Trademark/Patent)
Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) encompass legal rights that arise from intellectual creations in the industrial, scientific, literary, and artistic fields. These rights typically include patents for inventions, trademarks, copyrights, and related rights, such as industrial designs and geographical indications.
Copyrights:

We can help in registering original works such as literary, artistic, musical, or software creations with copyright offices.
- Enforcement:
We assist in enforcing copyrights by sending cease and desist letters, filing lawsuits for infringement, and representing clients in court.
- Licensing:
We negotiate and draft licensing agreements, allowing clients to grant permission to others to use their copyrighted works.
- Fair Use Analysis:
We provide guidance on what constitutes fair use of copyrighted material and help clients navigate issues related to it.
Patents:
- Patentability Searches:
We can conduct searches to determine if an invention is novel and non-obvious, which are key requirements for patentability.
- Patent Drafting:
We draft patent applications that describe the invention in detail and protect the client's intellectual property rights.
- Prosecution:
We interact with patent offices during the examination process to address objections and secure patent rights.
- Infringement Analysis:
We analyze whether a product or process infringes on a client's patent rights and advise on potential legal actions.
- Licensing and Transactions:
We negotiate and draft licensing agreements, assignments, and other transactions involving patents.
Trademarks:

We conduct searches to ensure that a proposed trademark is available for use and registration.

We assist in registering trademarks with the appropriate government authorities to obtain legal protection.

We represent clients in proceedings before trademark offices to oppose or cancel conflicting trademarks.
