Summary
I practice law in the following areas: Patents, Intellectual Property, Trademarks -- mainly in representing the interests of our clilents before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, and counsel clients who face and need to deal with infringement concerns. We do not charge for an initial consultation with a new client, and will gladly provide a brochure describing our work. A better picture of the work of David A. Burge Co., L.P.A. can be had by visitingi our website at http://www.daburge.com
We counsel inventors, conduct patent searches, prepare and file patent applications, and secure and maintain patents in the United States and abroad; and we conduct trademark searches, prepare and file trademark applications, and secure and maintain trademark registrations. We provide "design around" guidance to those wanting to introduce new products without infringing patents owned by others, and conduct "due diligence" work when intellectual property is to be transferred.
