Trademark and Brand Protection

For certain companies, how you brand a company will play a large part in the company’s success, especially in the consumer market space. In order to protect your brand, it is important to consult an attorney to help you register your trademarks and copyrights. Additionally, an attorney will represent you in the case that another entity breaches these protections.

Product Liability

Our manufacturer lawyers have advised and represented manufacturers, distributors, importers, exporters, sellers, wholesalers, and retailers in connection with losses alleged to have occurred from the use of products that are defective, by design, manufacture, shipment, intermediate alteration, or sale – or where there is a failure to warn or instruct issues.

Corporations, Partnerships, and Joint Venture Disputes

A joint venture agreement allows two or more businesses to merge their entities—or a portion of their products or services—to start a new business activity. Furthermore, each business contributes assets to the joint venture and the parties agree on how to divide the income and expenses that come from this partnership. In some cases, a joint venture is the structure chosen because the members of the agreement are located in different states or countries. While this agreement is contractual in nature, certain courts have held this agreement to mean the same thing as a partnership. However, other courts have considered the relationship merely contractual and not a partnership. A myriad of considerations has been used by the courts in determining whether a joint venture is a partnership. Furthermore, the courts consider the structure and management of a joint venture when considering whether this entity comprises a partnership.

Construction Disputes: Plant, Office, Factory, and Warehouse

Modern construction projects are complex as they require many different actors to work in unison to efficiently finish a project. Thus, when these interests conflict, litigation or a form of alternative dispute resolution may be necessary to resolve disputes. One must resolve these issues quickly or risk the viability of the project as a whole.
