Gray Ice Higdon includes a group of highly skilled IP attorneys who focus on maximizing the value of our client’s assets. Each member of the team understands the commercial importance of a strong Intellectual Property portfolio and works, as a partner, with each client to reach this goal.
Patent Prosecution
Our patent attorneys are actively involved in Post Grant proceedings, IP Licensing Agreements, Non-Infringement and Validity opinion work and other aspects of IP portfolio maintenance and monetization.
Trademarks
Our trademark practice extends internationally with the support of a network of foreign trademark counsel throughout the world working at our direction. As a result, we routinely assist our clients with the protection and enforcement of their brands outside of the U.S.
