Heavy Industry, Tools & Machinery

Tools, Machinery & Equipment
Innovations in tools, machinery, and equipment have fueled manufacturing efficiency since the industrial revolution. The automation of repetitive and mundane tasks has improved production and freed up human resources to perform more challenging and complex tasks. Advances in industry are critical as they enable the U.S. to compete with low-cost labor markets.

COJK’s attorneys, many with degrees in mechanical engineering and industry experience, work with clients that manufacture a broad range of articles, including heavy machinery, vehicles, printing presses, and wheelchair lifts.

In addition to our legal knowledge, we have real-world engineering experience. Our team members have worked as production engineers, process control specialists, aerospace engineers, and structural engineers. It is an honor to partner with inventors and help safeguard their ideas.

Pulp & Paper
The pulp and paper industry, which has strong roots in the Pacific Northwest, serves both local and worldwide markets. In the past few decades, important advances in production methods, biology, botany, and applied chemistry have improved the vitality of an industry that is based on natural resources.

COJK has a long history representing industry scientists, inventors, and executives in this field. Our legal skills are supported by our technical and scientific backgrounds, enabling us to provide comprehensive and high-quality counsel. Through our full range of services, we help our clients secure, maintain, and leverage their intellectual property rights.
