Our Intellectual Property Services

  • Trademark Strategy & Filing

    We help you identify strong marks, conduct clearance checks, and file for trademark protection with the California Secretary of State under California Business and Professions Code § 14200 et seq. We also advise on federal registration through the USPTO and related protections under the Lanham Act.

  • Licensing Agreements & Brand Partnerships

    As your business grows, so does the value of your brand. We help structure licensing deals that let you expand wisely while keeping your intellectual property secure and your terms clearly defined.

  • Trade Secret Protection

    For formulas, techniques, or internal systems that give you a competitive edge, we draft confidentiality agreements and advise on best practices to keep proprietary information safe under California’s Uniform Trade Secrets Act (Civil Code §§ 3426–3426.11).

  • Copyright Protection

    From packaging and design to original content and online media, we help protect your creative assets through copyright registration under the U.S. Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 101 et seq.) and take appropriate action against infringement.

  • Contract Review & IP Transfers

    If you’re entering into business partnerships or deals involving intellectual property, we help review and negotiate terms that protect your interests and maintain ownership of your work under applicable California contract law.

  • IP Enforcement & Dispute Response

    If another business uses your brand without permission, we pursue remedies under state and federal trademark law, including sending cease-and-desist letters, filing unfair competition claims (Bus. & Prof. Code § 17200), and initiating litigation when necessary to stop the infringing activity.

  • Domain Name Protection

    Your online identity matters. We help resolve disputes over domain ownership through ICANN procedures and state trademark enforcement.

  • Brand Development & Trademark Guidance

    We work with startups and growing brands to ensure their marketing, design, and naming strategies align with California trademark protection laws and best practices.
