Intellectual Property
Fellers Snider has more listed lawyers in
The Best Lawyers in America 2008 in the field of Intellectual Property Law
than any other firm in Tulsa, Oklahoma. At its foundation, the IP Group's patent practice focuses on obtaining high quality, enforceable domestic and international patents. Besides having scientific or technical undergraduate degrees, our registered patent attorneys include lawyers who have had extensive "hands on" engineering and technical experience. By virtue of their varied backgrounds, our patent lawyers understand and are capable of handling virtually all technologies. The Group's domestic patent practice is supplemented by considerable experience in procuring international patents throughout the Americas, Europe, Russia and the Far East.
The IP Group also maintains a highly active trademark practice. It has been our experience that careful selection and protection of trademarks can provide a tremendous business advantage. The Group is well versed in trademark selection, domestic and international registration procurement, prosecution and defense of trademark opposition and cancellation proceedings, and the enforcement of trademark rights.
As the Internet and electronic commerce continues to develop, computer law issues are rising in importance. Our lawyers have valuable experience in obtaining copyright registrations and patents for software, structuring acquisition, development and license agreements, and enforcing rights in computer based innovations.
The IP Group also advises and counsels clients on all aspects of corporate intellectual property matters, including the establishment of corporate IP protection programs, the form and content of employment agreements, intellectual property audits and due diligence, and the acquisition and transfer of all types of intellectual property rights.
Of course, to protect and enforce our client's rights, the IP Group takes full advantage of the Firm's vast litigation experience. From the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, the Group's attorneys provide top flight representation in all manner of cases.
The Firm's clients benefit not only from the special training, education and experience of the Group's lawyers, but also from the fact that the client's intellectual property needs can be fully met by local counsel providing
services of the highest quality at rates significantly less than those charged by firms located in regional financial centers. Former clients of such firms are further advantaged by our ability to provide prompt, personal service. Our clients are something more than a number.
