Trademark Registration &
Brand Protection
If you have a company, website or product, a trademark may be the best way to protect it. It offers protection that can protect your brand for much longer than most intellectual property protection and directly protects you against direct competition. It is vital that every entity considers trademark protection for its company, website or product. While applying for a trademark may seem rather simple, the fact is that around 20% of all trademark application with the USPTO are denied during first action. A knowledgeable attorney is an invaluable tool in procuring a registered trademark.
Copyright Registration &
Enforcement
Copyright is a powerful form of intellectual property protection offered in the United States that allows owners to protect the expression of ideas. This protection is often overlooked by business owners, but it is an incredibly affordable way to protect large portions of your business from being copied by competitors.
Amazon Suspension
We understand that sellers work extremely work hard to launch and maintain their E-commerce businesses on platforms such as Amazon which is why we make it our responsibility to protect these interests and intellectual property rights as if they were our own. While Amazon provides sellers with tremendous financial opportunity, Amazon can be just as quick to pull that opportunity within the blink of an eye and we understand how stressful this can be for sellers. Our firm provides consulting on all Amazon related issues including listing suspensions, account suspensions, payment disputes and Arbitration against Amazon.
Amazon Arbitration
Sometimes, a suspension of your Amazon listing results in a withholding of your funds by Amazon and Amazon refuses to release the funds. In those cases, sometimes the best option is to take Amazon to court. However, in your contract with Amazon in order to sell on Amazon, you have agreed that you’re only remedy is to pursue binding arbitration. This is actually beneficial to you, however, because the arbitration process is generally cheaper and faster than traditional court
