Trademark Litigation

Winston & Strawn's trademark litigators have helped companies protect some of America's most valuable brands. Our attorneys have litigated many cases in federal courts across the country and before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board of the USPTO.

Our trademark lawyers have secured remarkable outcomes in Internet-related disputes—frequently bringing to bear their ingenuity and deep experience in unique types of cases and with novel remedies. This experience includes assisting clients with the acquisition of domain names and advising on domain-related branding. We also have extensive experience in obtaining the transfer of infringing domain names from cybersquatters pursuant to the procedures set forth in the ICANN Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy, as well as through litigation under the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act.

Our attorneys understand that intellectual property litigation is increasingly becoming a means of establishing a client's future competitive position rather than simply resolving a dispute that arises out of past conduct. Our attorneys have substantial experience providing planning and management assistance to clients who use intellectual property protection as part of their business strategy.
