Protecting Your Identity & Brand

One of the most valuable assets for any business is its brand. Through trademarks, a company can distinguish its identity, products and services from its competitors. At Woodard, Emhardt, Henry, Reeves & Wagner, our dedicated group of trademark attorneys are adept at handling a broad range of trademark issues for clients. From obtaining and prosecuting federal, state and international trademark protection to maintaining single trademark registrations and international trademark portfolios containing hundreds of registrations, clients count on our team to handle trademark filings throughout the world.

In addition to registration, maintenance and renewal of trademarks, our team has significant experience in domestic and international trademark portfolio management and internet domain name dispute issues.

To identify others’ marks that might be problematic, we provide a trademark watch service and handle all aspects of trademark enforcement including oppositions and cancellation proceedings, as well as infringement issues and International Trade Commission (ITC) actions.
