It is critical that entrepreneurs and business people have at least a basic understanding of the different forms of intellectual property protection that might apply to their products. There is, however, an enormous amount of confusion about the differences. For example, it is a common occurrence for clients to ask whether they can “copyright our brand” or “get a patent on our logo.” The first step for me as an attorney is to respond to those questions by rephrasing them in a way that addresses the actual concern.
