Who Handles This
Common Questions
Registration is not required to have rights in a mark, but a federal registration provides important advantages, including nationwide notice and stronger enforcement options. We can help you decide whether and where to register.
It is work whose ownership belongs to the party that commissioned or employed the creator rather than the person who made it. The rules are technical, so a clear written agreement is the best way to avoid later disputes over ownership.
Options range from a demand letter to formal proceedings, depending on the situation. We can evaluate your rights and recommend a practical response.
