Intellectual Property Lawyers

The intellectual property lawyers at the Simmons Law Firm are focused on helping individuals, start-up companies and small to medium-sized businesses enforce their intellectual property rights and protect themselves against intellectual property infringement. Our staff of IP lawyers are experienced in a range of intellectual property matters, including patents, copyrights and trademarks.

Our intellectual property lawyers know you have invested a great deal of time, effort and money developing your intellectual property. We also understand that protecting your inventions and creations against intellectual property infringement is critical to the future of your business.

Our intellectual property lawyers have a keen understanding of the balance between the technical and legal aspects of intellectual property. We  have filed high stakes patent litigation actions against well-known companies like Apple, Inc., Rawlings Sporting Goods Company, and the four largest vendors in the electronic voting industry (such as Diebold Election Systems, Inc.), to name just a few.

Our intellectual property lawyers have represented a diverse client base.  We have represented clients on a range of matters, including electronic voting, computer technology, internet advertising, parental control features, video imaging, hunting tree stands, sporting goods, helmet design and more.

Our copyright, patent and trademark attorneys are skilled in some of the most active areas of IP, including biotechnology, pharmacological and biological science, and electrical, industrial and mechanical engineering. Through our intellectual property services, we have successfully secured numerous license agreements for clients, including a number of agreements without even filing suit.

IP litigation can be expensive, and we firmly believe that this expense should not be a barrier to the future of your business. That is why our IP lawyers operate on a contingency basis.  Our contingency lawyers don't get paid unless you win the case, putting the risk squarely on their shoulders.  Learn more about our approach to IP litigation.
