  • We can conduct searches and analyze the results in a manner that is easy to understand so that you can intelligently evaluate the risks concerning use of a particular mark.

  • We can draft and review trademark licenses and assignments and consent agreements.
  • We can provide counseling about how to best use your marks in connection with your goods or services so as to convey proper notice of your trademark rights to the world.
  • We can assist you in filing trademark applications on an international level.
  • We can manage your trademark portfolio, if you wish, so that critical deadlines are not missed which would result in the loss of your trademark application or registration.
DOMAIN NAME ISSUES

In todays world, having an Internet domain name that matches your trademark can be of critical importance. After all, people who search the Internet to find information about your products or services, will likely use your trademark in the search.

Therefore, we can provide assistance with domain name registration and how to deal with conflicting domain names. We can draft and file complaints under the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) or defend you in cases where someone files a complaint against you.
COPYRIGHT ASSISTANCE

Copyright Law can also be a source of confusion for many people. We can help you make sense of determining whether your work, whether it be in the form of music, text, graphic arts or software, is subject to copyright protection. We can prepare and file Copyright applications on your behalf. We can also provide you an analysis of whether someone is infringing your work and provide you options in how to deal with it. If someone is accusing you of copyright infringement we can provide assitance in determining whether or not you are committing an infringement.

Business Formation Services

If you need assistance with forming a business entity such as a corporation or limited liability company, we can also do these services in Texas, Arkansas, and Tennessee.

WHAT WE CANNOT DO

As much as we would like to help everyone who contacts us, there will be sometimes when we cannot. For example, lawyers do have to comply with RULES OF PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT.

One such rule prohibits lawyers from representing one client who's interest is directly adverse to those of another. Obviously, if we have already assisted someone with filing a trademark or copyright application and you want to file something that infringes or dilutes the other client's mark, or infringes a copyright, then we cannot take your case.

Therefore, we must conduct a check against our client list prior to starting any work for you in order to determine whether a conflict exists and whether the conflict can be resolved. If the conflict cannot be resolved, then we will not be able to provide you with assistance. We will notify you promptly so that you can make other arrangements. Likewise, if you have advanced any funds or provided us with any property, it will be promptly returned.

Conflicts can also arise where companies or partnerships break up and the principal owners are now adverse to each other. If such happens and the former company or partnership was a client, then we may not be able to represent either party and will have to terminate the relationship. Again, any property or funds advanced to us will be returned.

We do not handle patent matters. Patents are a different type of intellectual property covering protection for inventions and processes which require someone with expertise in patent law and admission to the Patent Bar. If you have patent matters, we can provide you a referral to someone who can assist you.

Although we can handle your U.S. Trademark filings and UDRP cases no matter where you or your business is located, we may not be able to take on representation in civil suits in states other than Texas, Arkansas, or Tennessee. If it turns out that we can not assist you in your lawsuit, we will try to provide you a referral to someone who can.
