With more than 30 years’ experience, Howard J. Shire is a skillful litigator who successfully protects and defends his clients’ products and IP rights against infringement. Examples include his successful representation of Toyota as defendant in a well known trademark dilution and infringement case involving the LEXUS mark; his spearheading a trademark and copyright counterfeiting case for MuscleTech, a leading nutritional supplement company, which resulted in a multi-million dollar judgment and criminal indictments and convictions brought by the U.S. Attorney; his successful representation of BASF Corporation in a trade dress litigation, which at the time established the Ninth Circuit’s rule that a single color is not generally protectable under the U.S. Trademark Act; his role on behalf of Heidelberg Harris in a case that resulted in a jury verdict of infringement of two printing press patents and a multi-million dollar damages award for Harris; his representing Ozzy Osbourne in a litigation concerning ownership of the well known Black Sabbath trademark. WTR 1000, which ranks trademark attorneys worldwide, acknowledges Mr. Shire as “the go-to trademark attorney” at the firm, especially for litigations, describing him as a “tenacious litigator” with “particular skill in the courtroom.”
