Comprehensive Representation for Intellectual Property Matters
Intellectual property law covers a wide range of rights, including patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets. These rights serve as the foundation of innovation, creativity, and business development. When they are threatened or misused, swift legal action may be necessary.
Although our firm is widely known for handling complex estate, probate, real property, and oil and gas matters, we also assist clients in navigating intellectual property issues, especially those involving ownership disputes, infringement concerns, and the protection of valuable proprietary assets.
Our legal services for intellectual property matters include:
1. Trademark Protection and Disputes
Trademarks protect the names, logos, and symbols that identify your business. We assist clients with securing trademark rights, addressing misuse of protected marks, and resolving conflicts related to confusingly similar branding.
Trademark issues often arise within broader business or property disputes, and our experience in litigation positions us to help clients enforce their rights when infringement occurs.
2. Copyright Issues
Copyright protects creative works, including written content, visual art, software, photographs, marketing materials, and more. When these works are used without permission or copied without authorization, the copyright owner may need legal action to stop the infringement and recover damages.
Our firm assists clients in reviewing ownership rights, resolving disputes, and determining the best course of action to protect their intellectual property.
3. Trade Secrets and Confidential Business Information
Trade secrets include proprietary formulas, client lists, business plans, operating procedures, and confidential processes that provide a competitive advantage. When trade secret theft or misuse occurs, it can seriously damage a company’s operations.
We help clients investigate these issues, assess damages, and pursue legal remedies to protect sensitive business information.
4. Intellectual Property Litigation
Disputes involving intellectual property often end up in court. Whether you are pursuing a claim or defending against one, you need a law firm with the experience and litigation skill to protect your rights.
Our firm has extensive courtroom experience and has handled complex, high-stakes cases throughout Oklahoma. We take a strategic and results-driven approach to every dispute and work with clients to develop strong legal arguments supported by evidence and expert analysis.
Intellectual Property Issues Connected to Real Property and Oil and Gas

- Misuse of confidential land or mineral valuations
- Unauthorized use of survey data or mapping information
- Intellectual property created during oil and gas operations
- Licensing agreements tied to resource extraction
Because of our firm’s long-standing background in real estate, oil and gas law, title issues, and property disputes, we are uniquely equipped to handle intellectual property matters that intersect with these areas. Clients trust our ability to assess ownership rights, analyze contracts, and resolve complex conflicts involving both tangible and intangible assets.
