   Founded an intellectual property boutique with bicoastal locations in Washington, DC, and Irvine, CA. We are dedicated to protecting clients\' ideas, brands and works by helping clients to obtain, strengthen and enforce critical patent, trademark and copyright protections. From engines and control systems for spacecraft to inventions conceived in a workshop or garage, from business and product names to creative works of art, we help clients to obtain the comprehensive intellectual property protection that is critical to their business. We go beyond the traditional roles of intellectual property attorneys to assist our clients in reviewing the business case for innovations, developing a business around innovations and obtaining funding. Not only are we committed to delivering the highest quality services, but we also actively seek to help facilitate the success of our clients\' businesses.
