Safeguarding Your Intellectual Property Rights

Patents


Securing a patent from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) is essential to safeguard your innovations. A patent grants you exclusive rights to utilize or license an invention while preventing competitors from doing the same. However, obtaining a patent can be complex as it requires demonstrating that your invention is novel, useful, and non-obvious. Our patent attorneys specialize in comprehending clients' innovations and formulating expansive patent claims. With adept legal knowledge and technological proficiency, we aid in prosecuting your patent claim with the USPTO. Moreover, we facilitate clients in international patent registrations under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT).

Patents are granted for novel designs, devices, or methods that haven't been publicly disclosed. Timing is crucial; filing a patent application within one year of public disclosure is advisable to enhance the chances of registration.



Maximizing profitability is a key objective of patent registration. It's imperative to thoroughly assess the profitability and feasibility of your intended patent registration. Given the higher costs and intricate procedures associated with patent registration compared to other intellectual property registrations, seeking guidance from a patent expert is often indispensable.

Trademarks


Strategic utilization of trademarks and service marks is pivotal in establishing brand identity. By obtaining proper trademark registration, you gain the authority to prevent others from using the mark.

Rely on our Dallas IP attorneys to navigate you through brand identification and trademark selection phases. We conduct comprehensive searches of the trademark registry, manage the registration process, and prepare applications for international trademark registration in collaboration with local counsel. To register a trademark in the United States, obtaining approval from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) is essential.

Leveraging our extensive experience in handling numerous trademark applications, our firm provides guidance through all stages of the U.S. federal registration process, offering profound insights into U.S. trademark law. Additionally, we offer trademark pre-filing search services to mitigate the risk of refusal by USPTO examiners. We cater to businesses across various sectors, from cosmetics and clothing brands to IT services and restaurants, addressing their trademark application requirements.

The Value of IP Property Assets


Intellectual property (IP) protection offers the advantages of exclusivity and defense against infringement claims. Simultaneously, IP rights serve as valuable assets that can unlock new markets and generate additional revenue streams. At Sul Lee Law Firm, we formulate forward-thinking IP strategies that encompass the purchase, sale, and licensing of intellectual property.
