Trademark/Copyright Counseling

Winston & Strawn’s IP attorneys are intimately involved in the selection, protection, and maintenance of our clients’ all-important brands, and in building value through licensing and other transactional means. Our IP practice includes counseling on the availability and registrability of trademarks, prosecuting applications for registration before the U.S.P.T.O. and foreign trademark offices, and designing and implementing worldwide trademark protection programs.  The firm has in-house computerized trademark searching capabilities, allowing for same-day screening of the availability of proposed trademarks.  Our attorneys currently manage extensive trademark portfolios for Fortune 200 and multinational clients.
