What Is Intellectual Property?
Intellectual property, or IP, is the legal name for things you create with your mind. That includes inventions, logos, brand names, software, designs, and artistic works. Just like you can own a house or a car, you can also own your ideas. IP law gives you the legal tools to stop others from stealing or misusing them.
There are four main kinds of intellectual property:

FAQ: Intellectual Property
Q: Do I need patent protection?
A: Patent protection can provide you with the ability to protect your ideas and innovations against potential infringers and provide a valuable enforcement mechanism to defend your rights and income streams from using your invention or licensing it.
Q: Can I file a patent myself?
A: You can, but the process is complex. One mistake could leave your invention unprotected or with less protection than is useful. It’s usually worth hiring a qualified patent attorney.
Q: How do I sue to enforce my patent rights? What if I have been sued?
A: One of the most important aspects of a patent infringement case is to have competent, trusted counsel who can help you navigate the complex process of litigation. From pre-complaint investigations, to infringement and validity analysis, drafting pleadings, conducting discovery, including expert discovery, and ultimately trial, it is imperative to have an intellectual property attorney who can use their knowledge and acumen to aid you in enforcing your rights or defending against suit. As intellectual property attorneys, we can provide technical and legal advice on patent infringement, validity, enforceability and other patent-related issues that arise in litigation and represent you in your patent cases.
Q: Do I need to register a trademark to protect my brand?
A: Not always, but registration gives you stronger legal protection — and helps prevent others from using something similar.
Q: What if someone copied my idea?
A: It depends on how the idea was used and whether you’ve taken steps to protect it. We can review your options and help you decide next steps.
