Intellectual Property
SSEG is focused on protecting the intellectual property rights of our clients and assisting them with maximizing the value of their intellectual property. Our goal is to create solutions and strategies that increase a client’s competitive edge through the use of their intellectual property. Our attorneys develop comprehensive IP portfolios that incorporate trademarks, trade dress, copyrights, domain names, trade secrets and other intellectual property.
In today’s economy, your image and branding is critical to success for regional and national expansion. A client’s trademark or trade dress is only maintained if the client monitors and prevents others from infringing. Our firm counsels clients from the ground up to assist in the selection and clearance of new logos and brand names as trademarks, as well as the continued assistance with protecting their image long-term.
Our firm offers a full range of trademark services including trademark search and clearance; application and prosecution; enforcement and litigation; licensing of rights; and many more related services.
Additionally, we are highly involved in commercial transactions of our clients’ intellectual property. The exploitation of intellectual property in the form of licensing, joint development, distribution, acquisitions, and other activities is a large source of revenue for clients. Our understanding of the scope and value of our clients’ intellectual property assets allows us to guide our clients towards the benefits and away from the potential pitfalls in the transaction process.
