What does an intellectual property lawyer do?

Intellectual property lawyers help creators and businesses protect and enforce trademarks, patents, copyright, and industrial designs, and they handle licensing and infringement disputes.

Trademarks, patents, and copyright are registered federally through the Canadian Intellectual Property Office, so protection is national.

How do you choose the right firm in Waterloo Region?

Ask about experience with your type of asset, whether the firm can file and prosecute the registrations you'll need, and how it handles enforcement if someone copies your work.
