The Hurley Stanners' IP Department has over thirty-nine years of experience counseling clients, on any and all IP issues arising in the US and abroad, including patents, trademarks, licensing, copyrights, trade secrets and unfair competition. We advise our business clients on how patents and trademarks can set a client apart from the competition, and how an IP portfolio can protect and add to clients assets, as well as provide additional revenue for some businesses. 

    Our technical experience ranges from medical devices and chemical combinations to electrical and mechanical inventions. Our engineers and attorneys also have experience in business methods, computer processes, aeronautics and telecommunications. 

    In conjunction with helping clients acquire additional intellectual property, we help clients license and enforce their IP in this competitive environment. We believe that the strongest IP portfolio is one that can also generate an income for the client. As an additional service, we monitor and analyze the IP that competitors may have, and utilize on-staff and third party engineers to help design around identified IP problems, or negotiate license agreements, when appropriate. 

    For our business, real estate and entertainment clients , our IP Department will also help protect the client's brand for the business, a product or a service  through  the registration of trademarks. We can advise the best approach to take to afford the client's goals. Here our understanding of a client's business and goals through our day to day representation will allow us to provide a strategic approach to trademarking and patents.
