Trademark

Potter Anderson & Corroon understands the importance of trademark protection in establishing and advancing our clients' market position, and toward this end we offer a breadth of trademark services in conjunction with our other intellectual property services areas.  We are able to assist our clients' business in strategic development of marks, including in the evaluation of proposed trademarks and trade names, and in the registration and maintenance of trademarks in the U.S. and in foreign countries.  We also offer advice and assistance on trademark enforcement issues, and in the assessment of trademark rights of others.  Additionally, we are prepared to help our clients create strategies for both initiating and responding to cease-and-desist letters and for other third-party issues.

Our attorneys also provide counseling on trademark licensing, internet domain names, and trade dress.  We will provide assistance in proactively monitoring for infringement in order to properly maintain and defend your trademarks, recognizing that trademarks may well constitute an important asset in your overall business strategy.  We are willing and able to work with our clients to develop cost-effective trademark portfolio filing, maintenance, and enforcement strategies.  Once developed, we help our clients pursue those strategies by using efficient staffing and by leveraging technology.
