What Is Intellectual Property?

Intellectual property encompasses a wide variety of things including: inventions, trade secrets, literature, art, symbols, designs, names and logos. Under the law, you have a right to protect your own intellectual property by having it patented, trademarked, or copyrighted. The goal of the laws surrounding intellectual property is to protect the inventions of individuals and ensure that they are properly compensated for their work, thereby encouraging individuals to continue inventing things for the common good. In some cases intellectual property rights may be monitored by the Federal government, and in other cases it may be monitored by state government. 

Our team can help you navigate the ins and outs of filing for intellectual property protections and ensuring that those protections are upheld.
