Innovation through Strategic Intellectual Property Management

In today’s dynamic and innovation-driven economy, intellectual property (IP) stands as a cornerstone of business strategy.

At AM Legal Services, led by Art Mikullovci, I specialize in guiding clients through the complex legal terrain of intellectual property rights, focusing particularly on the intricacies of licensing and comprehensive IP management.

I understand that intellectual property is not just a legal asset but a vital component of business strategy and innovation. My dedication to excellence and personalized approach ensures that your IP assets are not only protected but strategically leveraged to meet your business objectives.

Understanding Intellectual Property Essentials

Patents: A patent grants an exclusive right to an invention, offering a new method or technical solution. We assist clients in drafting, reviewing, and managing applications to ensure eligibility for utility, provisional, design, and plant patents. Patents are granted for up to twenty years, providing protection from unauthorized replication, use, or sales.

Trademarks: Trademark law protects unique identifiers such as words, phrases, symbols, or product shapes that distinguish goods or services. Our expertise covers the creation, registration, and enforcement of trademark rights, ensuring your brand stands out and is legally protected.

Copyrights: Copyright law grants exclusive rights to reproduce, sell, or market original works of art, music, and literature. We help ensure your creative works are protected under copyright, which requires originality and fixation in a tangible medium.

Trade Secrets: Trade secrets are protected when they hold economic value from not being generally known. We advise on strategies to maintain secrecy and protect such valuable information.

Comprehensive Intellectual Property Licensing Services

Tailored Licensing Strategies: We develop customized licensing strategies that align with your business goals, such as monetizing intellectual assets, entering new markets, or forming strategic partnerships.

IP Portfolio Management: Effective management of your IP portfolio maximizes value. We assist in auditing assets, identifying licensable assets, and optimizing strategies.

Protection and Enforcement: Even with licensing, your IP needs robust protection against infringement and unauthorized use. Our strategies include preventive measures and, if necessary, litigation.
