At Mandelbaum Barrett PC, our Intellectual Property (IP) department offers comprehensive, end-to-end services for both patents and trademarks. Our experienced team provides what we call “full boat intellectual property” support, meaning we handle every stage of the process — from prosecuting to litigating patents and trademarks.

Patent Services

Securing a patent is a lengthy process and detailed process that typically spans several years. Our team is experienced in navigating the complexities of patent prosecution, ensuring your invention is fully protected. Should disputes arise, our patent litigation services are equipped to handle the extensive documentation and legal strategies needed to defend your rights. However, it’s important to not that patent litigation can also be a multi-year process, requiring time and financial investment.

Trademark Services

While obtaining a trademark can be faster, recent backlogs caused by the pandemic have extended the timeline to at lease a year (compared to the 3-4 months it used to take). Despite these delays, trademark prosecution still generally moves quicker than patents. In the event of a trademark dispute, our team is ready to assist with trademark litigation, which typically involves fewer documents and resolves more quickly than patent cases.

At Mandelbaum Barrett PC, we’re here to guide you through every stage of protecting your intellectual property, whether it’s through securing patents and trademarks or defending them in court.
