Focused entirely on the worldwide protection of intellectual property rights in the United States and around the globe, few firms can match our breadth of experience and level of service to clients. From our location in the center of North America, we work with in-house counsel and executives of the most successful national and international companies. Many of our attorneys and patent agents hold advanced degrees in technical fields such as pharmaceuticals, mathematics, chemistry, biochemistry, genetics and aeronautics. A majority have prior work experience in technical fields such as engineering and manufacturing, aerospace, robotics, plastics, computer software, biochemistry, molecular biology and neuroscience. Clients from virtually every industry and technology have come to expect relevant and cost-effective approaches to their patent law needs: Patent prosecution, non-infringement and freedom to operate opinions, technology transactions and licensing, and dispute resolution and litigation. Our trademark attorneys have prosecuted thousands of U.S. trademark applications before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. We regularly represent our clients in ex parte appeals, oppositions and cancellation actions and also appear before the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. Sheridan Ross litigation attorneys have successfully resolved our clients’ disputes in federal courts throughout the U.S. and have coordinated multinational litigation on behalf of numerous international clients.
