Course ID: D041310 Credits: NY 2.5 MCLE Credits; NJ 2.9* 2.5 MCLE Credits NY; 0.5 Ethics; 1 Skills; 1 PP; Non-Transitional (NJ 2.9*) Faculty: Jason Drangel Esq., Epstein Drangel Bazerman & James LLP Description: The development and maintenance of a company's intellectual property, especially its corporate trademark, are keys to its success. It helps to establish a corporate identity, while also ensuring product identification in the marketplace. Knowledge of trademark law is essential to both protect your business clients' rights and to protect your clients from making costly mistakes. While it is common practice to refer trademark applications to law firms specializing in the field, non-intellectual property practitioners and corporate counsel with a general knowledge of trademark law and the procedures of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) can confidently accomplish the trademark registration process. After all, the only prerequisite to practicing before the USPTO is state bar admission.
This program covers all aspects of trademark registration, from identifying trademarks that qualify for protection, to the preparation and prosecution of a trademark application, to the maintenance of the resulting registration. How to renew a registration, how to appeal the examining attorney's determination of non-registrability and petition the USPTO Commissioner and related legal ethical issues are also discussed. Original Tape Date: April 13, 2010
