Intellectual Property

YOUR IDEAS ARE VALUABLE. DON’T LEAVE THEM UNPROTECTED

sTARTING ON THE rIGHT fOOT

Starting a new business or launching a new product or service requires a significant investment of resources — both human and financial. Developing product designs, names, slogans, logos and other marketing elements plays a significant role in this process and in your future outcomes.

It is critical that you protect these and other elements of intellectual property, otherwise you could face legal threats that could put the future of your business at risk. At GENERAL COUNSEL US, our experienced intellectual property lawyers can assist you with trademarks, copyrights and other legal measures to protect your interests.

Trademarks for Intellectual Property Protection

You can choose from a variety of options for protecting your business artifacts under federal law. Trademarks are one of the most common types of intellectual property protection. You can trademark a product or service. You can also protect brand elements such as packaging with trademarks. Copyrights apply to artistic creations and other creative works (including website designs and architecture), whereas patents may be the best way to protect an original, tangible concept.

You can protect trade secrets, defined as any information that provides you with an advantage over your competitors, under state-specific laws.

How an Intellectual Property Lawyer Can Help

Without adopting proactive protection strategies, you can potentially put yourself and your business at risk. Trademarks and other legal protections help prevent others from stealing your ideas and concepts, but these alone only provide a fraction of the protection you need.

Working with an intellectual property attorney is a cost-effective way to ensure that no one is already using your ideas in their business. Working on your behalf, an attorney can ensure that your intellectual property protection applications are correct and that you obtain the specific types of protection that are appropriate for your business model.
