Patents, trademarks, and copyrights

IP attorneys protect inventions, brands, and creative works through patents, trademarks, and copyrights — and enforce those rights against infringers.

When to hire a intellectual property attorney

  • You invented something worth patenting
  • You need to trademark a brand or logo
  • Someone copied your work
  • You received a cease-and-desist letter
