Trademarks

Smart business owners understand that their trademarks, trade names, trade dress, and service marks are incredibly valuable assets, and are what differentiate them from their competitors. These indicators of source speak to an organization's reputation, quality, and brand.  

COJK's trademark practitioners understand the importance of selecting a strong mark for which a business is identified, and we provide clients with the experience and creativity necessary to secure a distinctive mark that helps to build an organization's brand. Our attorneys assist clients in obtaining protection of trademarks, trade names, trade dress, service marks, and domain names, as well as with the licensing, defense, and enforcement of these valuable IP assets in the United States and internationally. 

With thousands of new products and services launched every year, developing a distinctive, reputable, and legally available trademark can be a unique challenge. Our extensive backgrounds in various industries give us a deep understanding of each client’s business and unique industry challenges, further enhancing the quality of our counsel.
