Intellectual Property Lawyer Queens, NY
Intellectual property describes distinct creations used in commerce. Common examples of IP protections are:
- Copyrights – Applicable to original creative material, like books, music, and art
- Trademarks – Register words, symbols, logos, slogans, and other signifiers that differentiate brands and contribute to brand identity
- Patents – Give exclusive rights for the use of inventions, processes, and designs
To secure these protections, applications must be filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The first step is researching existing registrations and confirming that your IP is different enough to qualify. Then, our Queens intellectual property lawyer begins the process, handling communications with the USPTO and managing any required additional actions.
Once your application is approved, the legal work continues. As your attorney, we monitor the use of your copyright, trademark, or patent. If there is evidence of infringement, our lawyer takes immediate action. In some situations, civil litigation is necessary. We handle all aspects of the proceedings, from investigating misconduct to presenting arguments in court.
Our scope includes brand strategy counseling. We can assess your business and identify intellectual property risks. Our lawyer will explain regulatory mandates, advise on the protection of trade secrets, and oversee related business activities like mergers to ensure compliance.
Why Experience Matters in Intellectual Property Cases
Intellectual property often involves very complicated and technical material. It is essential to work with an attorney who can break down complex IP into plain language that can be easily presented to the appropriate regulatory agencies and judges. Failing to safeguard intellectual property puts your brand and your creations at risk. It is unfair for another to profit from your unique ideas. We make sure that doesn’t happen.
