Trademarks & Copyrights

Trademarks and copyrights are critically important to protecting an organization’s identity, reputation, and market position. McCarthy Lebit’s trademark attorneys provide comprehensive, strategic brand counseling and analysis, from due diligence to mark selection, and from registration to clearance, policing, and enforcement.

Who We Are

Our trademark and copyright attorneys have extensive experience in:

  • Conducting and supervising trademark searches
  • Rendering opinions on the scope and validity of trademarks owned by others
  • Prosecuting trademarks
  • Handling opposition and cancellation proceedings before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB) of the USPTO.
  • Copyright registrations and infringement matters (mostly cease and desist letters)

How We Help

Clients trust us to develop and protect these valuable assets through portfolio development, maintenance and enforcement, dispute counseling, and litigation. Our trademark and copyright attorneys provide advice throughout the lifecycle of the intellectual property, including formulating national and international filing, enforcement, and anti-counterfeiting strategies.

We help clients identify and take steps to avoid any legitimate rights of their competitors. When a dispute arises, the litigators on our team are ready to combat infringement, unfair competition, and other disputes in all legal forums, including the federal and state courts and the TTAB. Some of our work has involved advertising and publishing review, in which we review content and provide a legal opinion to clients that includes the possibility of infringement claims from other rights holders.

Who We Represent

Whether a client wants to stand out in a crowded market or preserve an established and successful brand, our trademark attorneys have the insight, skill, and experience to help. Our trademark and copyright clients occupy space all over today’s commercial marketplace, from food and beverage to consumer products and digital media, biotech, pharmaceuticals, and more.
