Frequently Asked Questions
Common Questions About Intellectual Property
Do I need to register my trademark?
Federal registration provides nationwide protection, legal presumption of ownership, and federal court access. While you have some common law rights without registration, registration through a Colorado Springs IP lawyer is strongly recommended for any brand you intend to use long-term.
How do I protect trade secrets?
Implement confidentiality agreements, restrict access on a need-to-know basis, mark documents, use secure systems, and conduct exit interviews. Your Colorado Springs IP lawyer builds the framework for enforceable trade secret protection under both Colorado and federal trade secret law.
What is the difference between a trademark and copyright?
Trademarks protect brand identifiers such as names, logos, and slogans. Copyrights protect original creative works such as writing, software, and designs. Your Colorado Springs IP lawyer advises on which protections your business needs and how they overlap.
Who owns IP created by an employee or contractor?
By default, this depends on whether the work qualifies as a "work made for hire" and what your written agreement says. The safest approach is a written assignment in every employment and contractor agreement. Your Colorado Springs IP lawyer drafts the right language.
How much does IP work cost in Colorado Springs?
Trademark applications, copyright registrations, and IP audits are typically flat-fee. Licensing and complex IP transactions may be billed hourly or through project pricing. Call (719) 960-4396 for an estimate tailored to your portfolio.
