Understanding IP Law

Intellectual Property (IP) law governs the intangible creations of the human mind, such as inventions, literary and artistic works, designs, and symbols, names, and images used in commerce. Protecting your IP is critical to securing your competitive advantage.

Our firm provides expert legal representation for creators, inventors, and businesses at every stage of the IP lifecycle, from registration to enforcement and litigation.
