The success that causes a small business to grow often absorbs so much of the business owner’s time that there is no time left to protect what has been accomplished. The good reputation of a successful business grows faster that the owner can imagine. Unfortunately, if goodwill and trade secrets of success are left unprotected, they are susceptible to attack and usurpation by competitors who feel threatened, or imitators who want to take advantage of other people’s success. In a small suburban law office, it is rare to find the years of experience and level of expertise that Mr. O’Connell provides his clients in Copyright and Trademark registrations and protection of trade secrets. With over 20 years of publishing law experience as Vice President and General Counsel to one of the country’s most successful magazine and book publishers, Mr. O’Connell has overseen and implemented thousands of publishing transactions, including Author Agreements, Printing Contracts, Advertising Sales, Foreign Licensing, International Mergers and Acquisitions, and Federal Copyright and Trademark litigation. In addition, he has counseled hundreds of start-up businesses with Finders Agreements, Non-Disclosure Agreements, Confidentiality Agreements and Non-Compete Agreements. If your business is successful, regardless of its size, you need to take the time to get competent legal advice on the simple steps you can take to protect valuable trademark, copyright and trade secret assets. Call for a personal appointment with attorney O’Connell. There is no charge for initial consultations. |
