Trademarks and Copyrights: Protecting Your Intellectual Property

If you have a great product, service, or brand, you need to protect it. Trademarks and copyrights are two of the most important tools you have for protecting your intellectual property.

The filing of a trademark application begins a legal proceeding with many requirements and strict time deadlines. Whether you've got the next Nike swoosh or you're just trying to protect an inkling of an idea, the business trademark attorneys at Rust Belt Law can save you from future costly legal problems. Your attorney can conduct a comprehensive search of federal regulations, state registrations, and "common law" unregistered trademarks before even filing your application.

Other services our attorneys can advise on include, but are not limited to:

• Selection of trademarks
• Research on availability for use
• Registration of trademarks, service marks, and corporate names
• Preparation of applications
• Protection and prosecution of infringements
