Trademark Lawyer Farmington Hills, MI

A trademark is a symbol that indicates a proprietary brand name or other branding – or the brand name itself. If you’ve drunk a Coke, blown your nose with a Kleenex, or put a Band-Aid on a cut, then you’ve used a trademarked product. While other companies make sodas, tissues, and wound bandages, only these brands (and the parent companies) may officially call their products Coke, Band-Aid, and Kleenex. You likely have your own brand identity and branded goods or services and wish to preserve the integrity of your brand and the goodwill you’ve worked hard to develop.

A Farmington Hills, MI, trademark lawyer can help preserve the integrity of your brand and provide other valuable services to shield you from trademark infringement and dilution. We can send a Cease-and-desist Letter to an infringing party, and should that not yield results, initiate trademark litigation to stop the infringement and pursue damages on your behalf. We also help in many other ways, from due diligence when registering your trademark to filing for Michigan and federal trademark protections.

What Does A Farmington Hills Trademark Lawyer Do?

Our trademark, patent, and intellectual property (IP) attorneys take a three-step approach to establishing and protecting your trademarks. First, we can steer you toward strong trademarks that benefit you legally and from a marketing perspective. Trademarks and branding that fall in the categories of “fanciful” and “arbitrary” are some of the strongest for trademarks. Trademarks and brands that fall into the “suggestive” category are the next strongest tier. Selecting a strong trademark protects you in cases where infringement (whether unintentional or deliberate) is a solid first step to protecting your brand from infringement. We also complete due diligence in trademark searches on behalf of our clients. This protects you from having your application denied by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). We have access to proprietary trademark databases, so we can help save time and money and expedite the trademark approval process for our clients. An IP attorney can also register your trademark, which gives you an added layer of federal protection. If you wish to distribute your goods or services abroad, we’ll advise you of the laws regarding trademarks and IP in the country or countries you wish to do business in, ensuring that you don’t run afoul of foreign authorities.

Protecting Your Trademark and IP Rights

You’ve worked hard to develop an innovative product or unique service, start your company, and build your brand. Brand integrity involves securing legal proof that you own your brand and your hard work. We’ll advise you of the IP protection you need, including trademarks, copyrights, and patents. Once your work is federally protected, we can pursue legal action to protect your brand and business, from a C&D Letter to injunctions, litigation, or even criminal charges. We vigorously protect your right to ownership. With our extensive litigation experience and comprehensive knowledge of state and federal intellectual property laws, Trademark Lawyer Law Firm is uniquely positioned to protect your brand. Trust our years of service and dedication to our clients. Contact us today for a consultation with a Farmington Hills trademark lawyer.
