Intellectual property has become a cornerstone of modern business. This axiom applies as much to established businesses as it does to high technology start-ups. Many law firms have attorneys with specialized disciplines in intellectual property. Few can effectively provide the necessary counsel to incorporate intellectual property as part of a larger business strategy.

Traditional intellectual property rights include patents, trademarks and copyrights. While having in common the abstract concept of property, each of these areas provides a distinct form of protection. Client needs are as different as a trademark is from a patent, and the experienced intellectual property attorneys at Powell Goldstein are skilled at carefully matching the needs of the client with the right combination of intellectual property instruments. The Firm's seasoned patent, trademark and copyright attorneys take a team approach to building the client's intellectual property portfolio as a crucial part of an overall business plan.
