Intellectual Property Attorneys in Grand Rapids

Generally, the rights of intellectual property owners are based on federal patent law, trademark law, copyright laws, and state trade secret laws. As an overview, patents protect tangible inventions (for example, a widget); copyrights protect various forms of written and artistic expression (books or architectural designs); and trademarks protect a name or symbol that identifies the source of goods or services (brand name or logo).

At Keilen Law, we can help you secure your rights in copyrightable material, a trademark, or we can help you license your patent. Business lawyers use contracts to help you maximize and protect your ideas. In addition, there are specific terms that are required for intellectual property assignments; therefore, clients should always meet with their business lawyer to carefully protect and or assign intellectual property.

It is my pleasure to recommend Keilen Law. Adam Keilen is a hard-working, intelligent individual who understands exactly what is needed from the outset and how to get it done quickly and effectively. He is a resourceful, creative, and solution-oriented person who has helped ensure that our business has a strong foundation. Beyond just saying the right things, Adam has repeatedly proven that he is committed to our business needs and also has the ability to execute on the ideas that he brings forth. I am thankful for Adam!
