Harness IP strives to be known as the IP Law Firm for Harnessing Innovation® by enabling our clients to achieve the most from their IP investment. Serving our clients involves obtaining, monetizing, and enforcing key intellectual property rights regardless of whether they are ideas, products, or services.

Setting Harness IP apart is our commitment to fully understanding our clients’ intellectual property rights as well as their business strategies and the markets in which they compete. This allows us to provide the greatest protection possible for our clients & intellectual property assets.

Harness IP intellectual property attorneys provide best in class counsel starting with the creation and harvesting of innovative ideas and brand assets through to issuance or registration, management, and enforcement of intellectual property rights, both nationally and internationally.

Beyond securing patents, trademarks, and copyrights, Harness IP also is instrumental in developing and implementing plans that protect intellectual property designed for the unique needs of each client. We work with independent inventors, start-ups, non-profits, multi-national corporations, and universities and institutions.

When called for, Harness IP will also issue validity, infringement, and freedom to operate opinions.

Harness IP’s team of intellectual property and patent attorneys has extensive experience in litigating intellectual property matters. We have appeared before federal and state courts throughout the nation. Our firm’s litigators work tirelessly to protect the intellectual property assets of our clients, as well as defending those who have been wrongfully accused of infringing others& intellectual property rights.
