Global Trademark Portfolios

Life in a global economy means that brands, whether corporate, product or celebrity, need to be carefully integrated, managed and protected. Effective global strategies for trademarks, service marks, trade dress and domain names, both offline and online, are no longer aspirational – they are de rigueur.

Founding partner Steven Weinberg, one of the world’s leading trademark lawyers (so named by Managing Intellectual Property magazine), and his team counsel brand owners and develop strategies to establish, manage, and protect trademark and domain name portfolios. Our extensive practice encompasses:

• Developing and managing integrated global protection and enforcement strategies and portfolios for trademarks, service marks, trade dress and domain names
• Registering trademark and service marks in the U.S. and abroad, the latter through our global network of affiliates
• Conducting clearance searches and acquiring rights to trademarks, service marks, and domain names through acquisition, licenses and enforcement
• Trademark litigation in state and federal courts and opposition and cancellation proceedings in the US and abroad
• Negotiating and drafting trademark and service mark assignments, licenses, co-branding/co-marketing ventures, and cross-licenses
• Intellectual property and content audits and due diligence
