Protecting Clients' Intellectual Property |
Great ideas alone do not guarantee that a business or a brand will be successful. Ideas have to be nurtured and developed. They have to be protected from competitors and contingencies. Accomplishing these goals, or any other for that matter, always starts with a plan.
Einbinder & Dunn's business law practice includes assistance with a full range of intellectual property and Internet-related legal needs for various business industries, including the franchise industry, fashion industry, educational services industry, food services industry and accessories industry. In fact, the firm's experience with respect to branding, trademarks and other IP issues and Internet-based business models has been integral to the success of many of its business and franchise law clients over the last two decades.
- Trademark registration
- Business formation (i.e., forming a second, separate business entity to own and manage trademarks, branding and other intellectual property assets)
- License and sublicense agreements (i.e., licensing an IP LLC's assets to be used by the owner's business, or for use by a third party)
- Other contracts and agreements, as needed, including website agreements and confidentiality agreements
- Intellectual property litigation in state and federal courts, dispute resolution by mediation and arbitration
In all matters involving trademark, IP or Internet-related legal issues, Einbinder & Dunn's extensive experience and broad background mean attorneys who see, plan and take next steps based upon a deeper understanding of the issues and each particular client's needs. In addition, the firm's experience in complementary areas of the law, including real estate, franchise law and commercial litigation, allows the firm to provide clients with a more comprehensive approach to Internet and IP matters than might otherwise be considered.
The firm's partners and staff of attorneys are accessible, responsive and proactive while working only in each client's best interest to achieve superior results.
