At JCIP, each of our attorneys has a wealth of experience in all aspects of patent and trademark practices, from counseling, prosecution, and transaction, to litigation. We have a deep understanding in various patent post-grant proceedings, and an extensive experience in trademark opposition and cancellation proceedings at the USPTO. We strongly believe that our IP litigation experience and prosecution practice perfectly complement each other. For instance, every patent prosecution strategy is crafted with a full understanding of the client’s true business objectives, an awareness of the client’s competitors in the marketplace and a foresight of potential IP litigation.

As a boutique law firm, we pride ourselves in taking our time to understand our clients’ businesses, crafting innovative solutions and delivering consistently outstanding services that are wholly focused on the clients’ needs.
