AREAS OF PRACTICE

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PROTECTION

Our attorneys have years of experience protecting intellectual property portfolios. Specifically, we work with clients to develop their brands that stand apart from their competitors, and file trademarks with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, as well as file copyrights with the United States Copyright Office that support and protect their valuable IP.

At The Eichenstein Law Firm, we understand that trademarks are essential for businesses, artists, and entrepreneurs to protect their brand identity and ensure their products or services stand out in the marketplace. Our team of experienced attorneys specializes in trademark law, providing our clients with comprehensive legal services to achieve trademark protection in the United States.

We work closely with businesses, artists, and entrepreneurs to conduct thorough trademark searches and register their trademarks with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). We guide our clients through the entire trademark registration process, from selecting a distinctive trademark to filing the application and responding to any USPTO office actions. We also assist our clients in enforcing their trademarks by initiating and defending trademark infringement lawsuits, negotiating favorable settlements, and managing trademark portfolios.

At The Eichenstein Law Firm, we are dedicated to helping our clients protect their valuable intellectual property. We have a proven track record of success in achieving trademark protection for businesses, artists, and entrepreneurs across a wide range of industries.

Trademark Search, Trademark Registration, Response to USPTO Office Actions, and General IP Counsel

Prior to submitting a USPTO trademark application, we strongly advise our clients to let us conduct a thorough trademark search. A trademark search is basic due diligence before settling on a mark and filing a trademark application. A trademark search will help determine whether there is a conflicting mark on the principal or supplemental USPTO register that may create problems and potentially block an application from registration.

We offer our clients a first-class detailed and thorough trademark search on a flat fee basis, along with a detailed opinion letter on the results.  The client will then inform us based upon our opinion on whether they want to move forward with filing the trademark application. After we file an application, we stay on as counsel and keep the clients appraised as to developments with the application.

It is not unusual for Trademark Applicants to receive a United States Patent and Trademark Office Action that requires an amendment. Responding to an Office Action can range from changing a few words to drafting a multi-page legal argument. Our office has years of experience and success in responding to office actions, and provides them on a flat fee basis estimated on a case by case basis.

Trademark Applicants who do not conduct trademark searches prior to filing applications risk waiting six to twelve months after filing before being notified from the USPTO Examiner whether or not their trademark is registerable. In some cases, the application may receive a Section 2(d) rejection based upon “likelihood of confusion” with another mark, or an office action noting the application is unregistrable in some other way. Therefore, filing a trademark without conducting a search is not recommended.

We also assist clients who wish to register their marks on international trademark registers by connecting them with trusted attorneys licensed in relevant jurisdictions. Contact our office for more information.
