Intellectual Property Attorney in San Diego

intellectual property lawyer san diego

Intellectual property is a form of property ownership relating primarily to creations of the mind, such as inventions, literature, music, artwork, brands and more. Even a small or startup business may have intellectual property rights in its assets, such as the company website, business brand name, videos, photos, or proprietary documentation.

By consulting with an intellectual property attorney, you can establish your business’s IP rights early on, so they may be properly registered, and protected against unauthorized use.

Types of Intellectual Property

The main categories of intellectual property (or “IP”)  are copyrights, trademarks and patents. Each of these types of IP may be registered with the government, and owned as property by an individual or business entity. In addition, trade secrets is also recognized as a form of intellectual property. However, the primary protection in trade secrets comes from its secrecy and confidentiality, as opposed to registration.

An owner of IP may freely exploit that property for its own private or monetary purposes, or it may license those property rights to other individuals or business entities. The first step in IP ownership, is determining what IP rights potentially exist. The next step is protecting that property, through registration or other procedures. The final step is monetizing that IP. Kohler Legal provides a range of services to protect and enforce your intellectual property rights, including:
