PERFECTION OR ACQUISITION OF RIGHTS ATTORNEY IN DALLAS-FORT WORTH, TEXAS

There has been increased awareness of a business’s intangible assets in recent years. This issue is particularly noteworthy as it applies to intellectual property (IP) rights such as patents, trademarks, and copyrights. These IP rights need to be properly secured by, for example, examination or registration proceedings before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office or the U.S. Copyright Office. Proper acquisition and perfection of intellectual property rights is necessary to enforce those rights. It also can be important in valuing the intellectual property assets in the context of debt or equity financing of your business. If the IP rights are not built on the proper foundation, a creditor or investor may view the financing as too risky. Taking the right steps to secure your intellectual property rights protects and enhances the value of your intellectual property and your business.
