Intellectual Property

Honigman’s Intellectual Property (IP) department focuses on patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets for client portfolios worldwide, including search, registration, enforcement, anti-counterfeiting, litigation, and a range of transactional work involving intellectual property rights.

Our IP team offers a wide range of intellectual property services to large, mid-size, and small businesses throughout the nation and around the world. We also assist foreign clients in extending protection for intellectual property rights developed in their home countries to the U.S. market and assist U.S. clients in securing U.S. and global protection of intellectual property rights.

Our attorneys and IP specialists have extensive legal and professional training, including wide-ranging backgrounds and advanced degrees in electronics, computer science, electrical engineering, physics, e-commerce, information technology, chemistry, mechanical and chemical engineering, biotechnology, biology, medical devices, and structural and civil engineering. In addition, many of Honigman’s lawyers have worked for major corporations, national law firms, and IP boutiques and as examiners in the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), giving them valuable, multifaceted perspectives on our clients’ IP issues.
