Boris Umansky Lawyer Reviews & Ratings - Chicago

I got my feet wet as a former Trademark Examining Attorney with the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO), and, since then, have worked for over eight years in the private sector, almost exclusively in the intellectual property (I.P.) field.  I currently work at an I.P. boutique law firm, focusing primarily on trademark (including unfair competition) and copyright legal matters, as well as domain name disputes and Internet law-related issues.. I have represented and assisted clients from one person start-ups to Fortune 100 companies in a wide range of industries, such as insurance and financial services, industrial technology products, game software, and consumer goods.  My representation and client counseling services have included (1) the clearance, registration, maintenance and enforcement of trademarks worldwide; (2) domain name disputes (UDRP & ACPA proceedings) and DMCA as well as other Internet-related matters; (3) intellectual property due diligence matters in connection with the purchase or divestiture of businesses, and conducting I.P. audits; (4) trademark oppositions, cancellations, and ex parte appeals at the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board level, as well as trademark, copyright, unfair competition, counterfeiting and related dispute matters before various United States courts; (5) preparation and filing of copyright applications and providing related counseling; and (6) the preparation of Terms of Use and Privacy Policy agreements for web-based businesses, as well as Non-Disclosure Agreements and other documents to protect intellectual property assets.
