Senior Trademark Counsel
Buchalter
https://www.linkedin.com/company/buchalter
As an attorney in Buchalter’s Intellectual Property group, my practice involved counseling clients on all stages of trademark and brand protection, including domestic and worldwide trademark clearance, prosecution and enforcement.  I helped clients navigate the trademark registration process and successfully overcame likelihood-of-confusion refusals, descriptiveness refusals, and other substantive and procedural objections.  I also represented clients before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB), including appeals, oppositions and cancellation proceedings. 

In addition, I assisted with general corporate matters, terms & conditions, privacy policies, IP licensing, copyright protection and enforcement, including preparing and responding to cease and desist letters, IP due diligence and litigation support for cases involving trademarks, patents, copyright, and trade secrets.  

I represented clients in a variety of industries, including fashion and apparel, wine, beer and alcoholic beverages, restaurants, tech companies, start-ups, mobile applications, software, financial institutions, health care companies, biotech, unmanned aircraft systems (drones), and more.
