Intellectual Property

Service Overview

Your brand name, product design, creative work, and proprietary processes are often a business's most valuable property. Protecting them with appropriate trademark, copyright, patent, and trade secret strategies is essential — whether you're a New York creator, startup, established business, or brand defending against infringement.

Dial4Law connects creators, founders, and businesses with independent, licensed intellectual property attorneys across NYC and New York State. Our network includes attorneys experienced in trademark prosecution, copyright protection, patent strategy, IP licensing, and IP litigation in NY courts and federal courts.

Whether you need to file a trademark application, send a cease-and-desist letter, defend against infringement claims, or license your IP for revenue, Dial4Law connects you with an attorney typically within 2 hours during normal business hours.

The Final Result

Intellectual property in the United States is governed primarily by federal law — the Lanham Act for trademarks, Copyright Act for copyrights, Patent Act for patents, and the Defend Trade Secrets Act (DTSA) for trade secrets. New York also has its own state-law IP-related rights, including common-law trade secret protection and right-of-publicity rights under New York Civil Rights Law §§50-51. The Southern District of New York is one of the most active IP litigation venues in the country.

When you submit your IP matter to Dial4Law, we share your case with a New York intellectual property attorney whose practice covers your specific IP area. The matching service is free. IP attorneys typically charge flat fees for registrations and hourly rates for litigation and licensing, but specific fees vary by attorney. Communications with Dial4Law are not attorney-client privileged.
