We have helped companies and individuals in Minneapolis, across the Twin Cities and greater Minnesota establish and enforce their intellectual property rights. Arrange a free consultation today.
Minnesota Copyright and Trademark Law
Senior attorney Bart Gernander has extensive experience in the legal aspects of trademark and copyright law:
- Perfecting copyrights to published material, software and other property
- Registering trademarks and service marks
- Licensing agreements
- Third party and end user agreements, as in software licensing
- Franchise agreements
- Patent filings (but not patent prosecutions)
- Enforcement actions and litigation
Our attorneys also have experience in drafting and enforcing employee agreements (non-compete/non-disclosure) to protect trade secrets.
Intellectual Property Infringement
We represent plaintiffs of defendants in copyright infringement, trademark litigation, licensing disputes and restrictive covenant/trade secrets litigation. A cease-and-desist demand from your legal counsel may be effective, but our aggressive trial lawyers will pursue all remedies, including injunctions and lawsuits for damages.
Our law firm's comprehensive abilities include business formation, contract law, employment law, civil litigation and appeals. In addition to copyright and trademark litigation, we can help you maximize the business potential of your intellectual property.
