Advancing the World’s Innovation since 1880

You only have one chance to make a first impression, and the aesthetic appearance of your product is that chance. Given the time and effort often spent on developing and perfecting the look and feel of a product, protecting your product design is more important than ever.

We are able to call upon years of experience in wide-ranging, yet highly applicable areas of the law, including design patents, copyrights, trade dress and litigation, to formulate a multi-faceted approach to developing and protecting your unique designs. Areas in which we have acquired design protection include, for example, home décor, consumer electronics, product packaging, graphical user interfaces, and automotive design. From clearance opinions on potential new designs, to acquiring intellectual property and then asserting it, we are here to assist you at every step along the way.
