Honigman’s Intellectual Property (IP) Department focuses on patents, trademarks, copyrights and trade secrets for client portfolios worldwide, including search, registration, enforcement, anti-counterfeiting, litigation and a range of transactional work involving intellectual property rights (IPR). Our IP team offers a wide range of intellectual property services to large, mid-size and small businesses throughout the nation and around the world. We also assist foreign clients in extending protection for IPR developed in their home countries to the U.S. market, and U.S. clients in securing U.S. and global protection of IPR.

Our attorneys and IP specialists have extensive legal and professional training, including wide-ranging backgrounds and advanced degrees in electronics, computer science, electrical engineering, physics, e-commerce and information technology, chemistry, mechanical and chemical engineering, biotechnology, biology, medical devices and structural and civil engineering. In addition, many of Honigman's lawyers have worked for major corporations, national law firms and IP boutiques, and as examiners in the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), giving them a valuable perspective on our clients' IP issues.
