PRACTICE AREAS | Intellectual Property Litigation

Intellectual property disputes comprise a burgeoning area of the law. We have been handling intellectual property cases for more than 20 years. Our intellectual property services include enforcing and defending our clients’ intellectual property rights through litigation and alternative dispute resolution, and providing guidance to clients to avoid infringing the intellectual property rights of others. Our representation begins with an understanding of our client's objectives and involves creating and implementing a solid strategy to enforce or defend the client’s intellectual property rights.

We regularly counsel clients and litigate on their behalf in state and federal courts and agencies on a full range of intellectual property matters, including patent infringement, trademarks, trade names, trade secrets, copyright infringement, licensing contracts, inventor disputes, Internet and domain name disputes, e-commerce concerns, false advertising, unfair competition and data privacy. We have expertise handling trademark and trade name disputes under the Lanham Act and its state counterparts, as well as litigation involving copyright infringement. We have been co-counsel in patent infringement lawsuits for both patent owners and alleged infringers.

We prosecute and defend actions involving the alleged wrongful disclosure of trade secrets and other confidential and proprietary information. We assist clients to ensure that their employees do not disclose or improperly use confidential or proprietary materials. We draft individual confidentiality agreements and non-disclosure and non-compete contracts for employees, vendors, contractors, partners and other third parties.

We provide sound, practical advice to a wide range of emerging and established technology-based businesses in biotechnology, manufacturing, telecommunications and Internet-based businesses, as well as other industries.
