Overview
Locke Lord has long maintained a blue-chip client roster of many of the world's best-known consumer-brand and industrial product companies. The list is long and varied: antiperspirants to airplane engines, cigars to satellites, dental floss to diamonds. We help them to protect and leverage their market share.
Our industrial and consumer products practice is worldwide, and we have represented clients in almost every court in America over the last hundred years. We manage all consumer and industrial product patent and trademark issues, including product and trademark validity and clearance, and all aspects of enforceability and infringement. We provide the highest quality opinions for purposes of validity and clearance, due diligence and freedom of use.
Our participation in litigation provides us with a precise understanding of the role and importance of opinion, how it can be used and how it can be attacked. We have been on both sides many times. This depth of experience allows us to provide our clients with industrial and consumer product IP services in a cost-effective manner.
