Intellectual Property Litigation Attorney

Intellectual property litigation is the enforcement of intellectual property rights in a court or in an arbitration proceeding. It can involve infringement, theft or misappropriation of intellectual property (IP) rights or unfairly competing in business with another. Depending on the nature of the IP right being enforced, the enforcement action can be brought in federal or state court. However, enforcement of certain IP rights – specifically patents and copyrights – must be brought in federal court only whereas other IP rights can be brought in either federal or state court depending on the circumstances of the case.

Typically, the recourse involved when an IP right has been infringed or misappropriated is only civil in nature. However, there are some situations where the ramifications could be criminal in addition to civil – such as under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act or under the Copyright Act. It is important that your attorney understand the full ramifications of the allegations made as well as an understanding of the law and its applicability to your situation.

At the Peacock Law Firm PLLC, the attorney has the knowledge and skill to properly advise you in all matters of IP litigation – whether you are enforcing your rights against an infringer or you are being accused of infringement. The firm represents clients in:

• Counterfeiting lawsuits

Our attorney provides representation in all aspects of IP litigation – from pre-suit investigations to trials to appeals. While the attorney prides himself in his aggressive approach to litigation, he, first, listens to you as his client. He listens to determine what your goals and expectations are. Then, he builds a battle plan and executes it methodically – doing so in a cost-effective manner. If your goal is to settle the litigation, he works towards that goal. If, however, your goal is to seek justice from a court for the infringement of your IP rights, obtaining the maximum amount of monetary damages and injunctive relief, he pursues it in a competent and aggressive manner. He endeavors to secure for you the results that you want to happen in the litigation.
