Our Breach Response Services
Data breaches require rapid, coordinated response. Our practice provides breach response services including investigation management, notification compliance, and regulatory and litigation defense.
Incident Response
When breaches occur, we help clients respond effectively. We coordinate investigations, preserve evidence, contain ongoing exposure, and manage communications. We work under privilege to protect sensitive assessments.
Notification Compliance
Data breach notification laws vary significantly across jurisdictions. We analyze notification requirements, draft notices, and manage the notification process to affected individuals, regulators, and other required parties.
Regulatory Response
Breaches often trigger regulatory inquiries. We handle responses to state attorneys general, FTC, HHS, and other regulators, managing investigations to minimize exposure.
Litigation Defense
Breaches frequently generate class actions and individual lawsuits. We defend breach litigation, challenging standing, class certification, and damages theories.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between ™ and ®?
The ™ symbol indicates that you claim trademark rights in a mark, but it does not require federal registration. The ® symbol can only be used after your trademark has been officially registered with the USPTO.
How long does trademark registration take?
The typical timeline for USPTO trademark registration is 8-12 months if there are no complications. If office actions or oppositions arise, the process can take 18 months or longer.
Do I need to conduct a trademark search before filing?
While not legally required, we strongly recommend a comprehensive clearance search before filing. A search helps identify potential conflicts that could result in refusal of your application.
What are the USPTO filing fees?
USPTO filing fees are $250 per class using TEAS Plus or $350 per class using TEAS Standard. Additional fees apply for Statements of Use, extensions, and other filings.
Can I trademark a name I'm not using yet?
Yes, you can file an Intent-to-Use (ITU) application before you begin using the mark in commerce. However, you must eventually provide evidence of actual use before the trademark will register.
How long does a trademark registration last?
A federal trademark registration can last indefinitely, but you must file maintenance documents between years 5-6 and renew every 10 years.
