Intellectual Property: Trademark, Copyright & Trade Secrets

About

Provided by Kelley Drye & Warren LLP

Kelley Drye’s Trademark and Copyright practice takes a whole-business approach to building and protecting our clients’ intellectual property. Our trademark and copyright practice is unique in that our primary attorneys have experience in both IP prosecution and litigation. While we have prosecuted many thousands of trademark applications in the U.S. and globally, we understand there is more to trademark practice than the mass filing and ministerial maintenance of trademark applications.

We represent and advise clients in all aspects of trademark and copyright law, including clearance, prosecution, maintenance and enforcement of trademarks and copyrights worldwide; distribution and licensing arrangements; grey market and counterfeiting issues; marketing practices; and adversarial proceedings in U.S. Federal District Court, U.S. Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB) and ICANN Domain Dispute proceedings.

Our IP litigators have earned a reputation as tough adversaries. Unlike many of our competitors, we are known for trying cases to judge or jury if to do so is in our clients’ best interests. Our track record of trial victories, coupled with our technical know-how and cross-discipline teamwork, often enables us to achieve advantageous settlements for our clients in the early stages of a dispute. We also have extensive experience in successfully arbitrating IP disputes both domestically and in international arbitration tribunals.
