Patents
Inventors and designers can apply for a patent for any new device, process, design or even a new plant variety. The application process can be overwhelming for inventors. We have the experience to protect your intellectual property rights from application to realization. We have the resources and the nation-wide and international connections to provide protection against infringement of your legal rights.

Whether you have just started the process or you are looking for an experienced litigation lawyer, or local counsel, in Clearwater or Largo to protect an existing patent, we have the expertise you need.
Trademarks
Trademarks, similar to patents, are registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). We can help you navigate the process, from prior use searches, to drafting and filing the application papers, to licensing your mark to other businesses.
If you become engaged in any trademark disputes, you need an experienced litigation lawyer, in Clearwater, Largo and throughout Florida, or local counsel in the Middle District of Florida (MDFL). Larson & Larson maintains close associations throughout the USA and around the world to handle cases in multiple jurisdictions.
Copyrights
In this digital age, artists and writers need more vigilant protections than ever for their creative output. Anyone making a living from literary, musical or artistic endeavors must have a strategy and a support team in place to keep their creations secure and free from theft and infringement. The support of a proficient litigation lawyer in Clearwater and Largo will protect your craft from theft and unauthorized use, as well as serve as Middle District local counsel for the U.S. District Court – Middle District of Florida.
Copyrights secure specific exclusive rights to the creator. There are certain exceptions that can allow use of your work by others. With the line between infringement and fair use being blurred it is vitally important to have a team of attorneys on your side who specialize in protecting intellectual property. From inception to publication and beyond, Larson & Larson will establish, maintain and enforce your rights.
Unfair Competition
As technological progress has made it easier for companies, large and small, to compete ever more widely in an expanding marketplace, issues of unfair competition will often arise.

We believe that fair competition makes sound markets and protects the rights of all the players. With our experience in every facet of intellectual property law, we vigorously safeguard the rights of our clients.
