About Us
We serve domestic and international clients looking for quality IP representation with cost simplicity and predictability. We also serve as a resource to other attorneys and law firms. In fact, a significant portion of our practice is helping foreign law firms represent their clients before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Our valued clients represent a full spectrum of business, from multinational corporations to start-up companies to individuals.
We are serious about IP law. We believe that IP law serves important, socially desirable functions in our society and that they are worthy of legal protection.
For example, our nation’s patent laws encourage innovation by the private sector that benefits all of us. They encourage private-sector innovation by rewarding those who risk the capital, invest the time, apply their intelligence, or expend their effort in the inventive process. Also, by encouraging inventors to make their discoveries known instead of maintaining them in secret, our IP system increases the overall knowledge base available to the public. The briefest review of our nation’s history bears out the benefits of our patent system; the telephone, the light bulb, the radio, and the integrated circuit are all the result of private-sector innovation encouraged by our IP laws.
Another example of the benefits of IP law is trademark law, which promotes an overall rise in the quality of goods and services available to consumers. Trademarks, by enabling consumers to select goods and services that meet their expectations, force competitors to provide improved goods or services to remain competitive.
For these reasons, we believe that our IP laws are actually a driver of the resilient economy our nation enjoys, not an obstacle to it. And this, we believe, is why the framers of the Constitution specifically authorized Congress to enact laws “promoting the useful arts.”
