While Phoenix may be short on rainwater, there is no drought here when it comes to new ideas and new businesses. Entrepreneurs are moving from all over the country to Arizona and Phoenix in particular. While new starts can be exciting, it is important to lay a sturdy foundation for your business. One of those first steps is protecting your intellectual property assets, especially your trademarks. Fortunately, I provide Phoenix trademark attorney services to assist local businesses with the protection of branding.
Phoenix Trademark Attorney Services
When starting a business, you need to ensure that you (1) do not infringe upon someone else’s trademark rights, and (2) register your trademarks for protection. Registration of trademarks with the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office provides important rights and protections. Even if you only plan to use your business name as a trademark in Phoenix, you should avoid limiting the future potential for your brand. Registration of your Phoenix trademark can allow you to expand your business and use the name in new parts of the country. Also, if you choose to sell your business, potential buyers may want to expand beyond Arizona. Federal registration can open up the door for franchising and make expansion easier, making your business more valuable to potential buyers.
Regardless of the field of your business, I can help with your Phoenix trademark needs! I currently work with clients in a wide variety of fields: clothing brands, restaurants, software companies, candlemakers, online retail stores, hot sauces, bloggers, energy drinks… As you can see, I work with all types of businesses. I also work with different sizes of businesses, as well.
If you live in Phoenix, you are probably used to seeing billboards for lawyers every 100 feet on our local highways. Unlike these local personal injury attorneys, I primarily market my Phoenix trademark services through my blog. The TM-I Blog provides some foundational information about trademark law. You can learn a lot about trademark law without stepping foot inside a law school. The blog can also help you determine what kinds of questions you would want an attorney to answer. I hope that you find my website and blog to be helpful!
My Move to Phoenix
As you may have already read, I am originally from St. Louis, Missouri. After 30+ years in St. Louis, I decided to explore the southwest and found that Phoenix was a great fit for my family! Tired of the winter cold and the endless stretches of flat farmland, my wife and I moved to Phoenix in 2019. We love our new home and all that it has to offer, particularly the amazing food and culture. My wife and I are Arizona Cardinals season ticket holders, which keeps us pretty busy during the fall and winter.
Since moving, I work out of my home in Ahwatukee (near South Mountain). While many of my clients are also located in Phoenix, I also work with businesses throughout the United States and around the world! While I can certainly meet in person to discuss your matter, in most cases it is not necessary to do so. I can obtain all of the information that I need via phone calls and email.
