our services

Whether you are a solo entrepreneur trying to protect your brand or a midsized company with a large trademark portfolio we can help. With over 25 years of experience, our attorneys have filed thousands of trademark applications, making our consultations and registration process simple and clear.

We handle all types of post-grant proceedings, such as ex parte reexamination and inter partes review (IPR). When representing petitioners, our attorneys draw on their extensive patent prosecution and litigation experience – and their technical expertise – to identify the most relevant prior art and draft thorough petitions that are more likely to pass the scrutiny of the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB). When representing patent owners, our attorneys draw on these same skills to identify petition weaknesses and craft convincing arguments for patentability.

Received a “Dear Infringer” letter? We can help. Our attorneys have extensive experience helping clients successfully defend against patents asserted in litigation or pre-litigation actions. We leverage our technical expertise to quickly analyze the asserted patents and identify highly relevant prior art. In addition, we can analyze accused products (or accused standards) to identify strong non-infringement positions.

Your brand is a vital part of your business. Protecting that brand with a strategic trademark portfolio is important.  Management of any given company’s trademark portfolio will vary as there is much more to trademarks than just registration and issuance.  Our attorneys have managed various trademark portfolios and are ready to manage your companies. 

Creating your trademarks and service marks, submitting them to the USPTO, and obtaining your registration is all just the start of the process. Your company must now take the necessary actions to make sure that no third parties use these marks without your authorization. This entails being watchful in every market where your products or services are marketed. The trademark specialists at Dana Legal Services will help you vigilantly monitor for third party use of your marks for any indication of current or potential infringement.

As a patent holder, you have the right to prevent others from using, making, or selling your patented invention. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to defend your intellectual property and revenue stream when third-party sellers violate your patent rights.

At Dana Legal Services, we’re dedicated to protecting your intellectual property and revenue stream through effective patent enforcement. Let us help you safeguard your hard-earned success and build a strong foundation for future growth.
