Safeguard and Leverage Your IP

In today’s global service economy, a business’ creative works and brand are often its most valuable assets. Intellectual property theft and leakage cost U.S. companies billions of dollars every year. On the flip side, unwittingly infringing another’s intellectual property can cost a business tens of thousands of dollars and its management massive migraines, sleepless nights, and lost inertia. 

We advise a wide range of clients -- including marketing and advertising firms, food distribution companies, banks, and financial institutions. We routinely advise clients on various IP business and litigation matters, including:

  • Trademark clearance, registration, and licensing
  • Trademark Trial and Appeal Board representation
  • Copyright registration and licensing
  • Copyright and trademark litigation
  • Copyright troll defense
  • Trade secret protection and litigation
  • Software and Internet agreements
  • Domain name registration, prosecution, and disputes
  • IP audits and risk management counseling
  • Negotiating development agreements
  • Structuring licensing and other transactions to monetize IP

Attorneys with Real-World Experience

We have deep, practical, real-world experience protecting intangible assets, and understand that your brand, copyrights, trade secrets, unique processes, and data are priceless, irreplaceable assets. 

Our team includes attorneys who have served as in-house counsel in businesses of every size and within a broad spectrum of industries. We understand how critical intellectual property is to success and craft IP-protection strategies with a holistic perspective. 

Registering Copyrights and Trademarks

Copyrights and trademarks grant creative rights to business owners, protecting your intangible assets from being exploited without permission. As a result, it’s essential to have a legal team that fully understands what sets your unique processes and branding apart from the competition. We have guided a multitude of businesses through the intellectual property development process, from budding startups to large corporations.

Intellectual Property Litigation

When your company’s intellectual property has been threatened, we use a hands-on approach that emphasizes early case strategy formulation. On the other hand, if your business may have infringed on another company’s intellectual property, we can protect your best interests through the trial process. Our litigation team has successfully handled a myriad of matters on both the federal and state levels, including: 

  • Copyright and trade secret litigation
  • Right of publicity litigation
  • Database protection and screen scraping
  • Data privacy, security breach, and TCPA class action litigation
  • International Trade Commission’s Section 337 litigation

More Than 40 Years of Tech-Knowledge

Our IP leaders have lived and practiced through the entire computer revolution – from the 8088 to the Cloud. Social media, cloud computing, enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions, and Software as a Service (SaaS) platforms have radically changed intellectual property’s potential risks and rewards. Moye White’s IP team has a passion for technology and its impact on operations. They understand the legal ramifications of emerging technologies and advise on various e-commerce issues.

From establishing copyrights and protecting trade secrets to intellectual property prosecution and defense, we can help. With clients all over the nation and offices in Denver, Atlanta, and Basalt, well-rounded IP protection is always within reach.
