Services

Patent Central LLC counsels and represents clients on matters involving intellectual property and technology law, including patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets, and other closely related areas of law, such as product distribution, unfair competition, and trade regulation law. We offer a full range of legal services pertaining to intellectual property and technology. Our attorneys work individually or as teams on specific matters as appropriate for each individual case or client.

The core of our practice encompasses identifying and securing intellectual property for our clients on a worldwide basis. We arrange and conduct patentability searches, prepare patent applications, and prosecute patent applications in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

We also arrange and conduct trademark clearance searches, register trademarks in the U.S. Patent and Trademark office and applicable state agencies, register copyrights in the U.S. Copyright Office, and assist in the protection of trade secrets. For matters involving foreign agencies and law, we work closely with our established network of foreign attorneys and agents.

Patent Central LLC views intellectual property not as an end in itself but as a tool for achieving the business objectives of its owners. We provide our clients proactive counseling on matters pertaining to the commercialization and strategic management of their intellectual property. We negotiate and prepare patent, trademark, copyright, and trade secret license, research and development, joint venture, product distribution, confidentiality, and other similar agreements.

When corporate, securities, tax, and other legal inputs outside our areas of practice are necessary, we work closely with the attorneys in the general law firms which represent our clients.

We know that it is important for our clients to have the ability to advertise and sell their products and services notwithstanding the intellectual property of others. To that end, we arrange and conduct patent infringement and validity searches, perform patent infringement and validity studies, arrange and conduct trademark infringement and validity searches, perform trademark infringement and validity studies, perform copyright infringement and validity studies, and counsel on non-infringing alternatives. When it appears to be feasible, we propose creative business and technical solutions to conflicts created by the intellectual property of others.
