Sylvia Mulholland Lawyer Reviews & Ratings - Los Angeles

Licensed to practice in both the US (California) and Canada. I am a dedicated trademark attorney with over 25 years' expereince in trademark registraiton and enforcement, both domestic and international.. A little more about me: My unique background, and passion for the arts, led me into an area of law that combines both words (and ideas of all kinds) with business. I am licensed to practice law, and actively practice, in the United States and Canada, with clients on both sides of the border.  I was a long-standing partner with one of Canada’s most prominent intellectual property firms, Gowling Lafleur Henderson (now Gowling WLG, worlwide) and have worked for Twentieth Century Fox in Los Angeles, in the area of domestic and international trademarks.. Because of my expertise in trademarking, in both the US and Canada, I have lectured before the American Bar Association on the differences in prosecution of trademarks between the two countries.  Not to be bound by borders, however, I have acquired a depth of experience in protecting, managing and enforcing international trademark portfolios for both multi-national corporations and small businesses of every kind. I k ow the value of branding in a truly global marketplace.  Global branding has become a specialty of mine and I work daily with a trusted network of intellectual property counsel around the world to “get it done” for the best rates possible.. Prior to entering law school, I attended the well-respected Ontario College of Art & Design in Toronto.  I went on to earn my law degree from the University of Ottawa, in the capital city of Canada.  I also hold a Masters in Fine Art from the American Film Institute in Los Angeles where I won the prestigious Sloan Foundation Fellowship.. I am the author of two novels, published originally in the UK, Canada and Germany, and many newspaper and magazine articles on legal and other subjects.  My newest books now on Amazon are A NANNY FOR HARRY ad SISTERS IN LAW, both fun romps about women (lawyers) who try to manage the high wire act of "doing it all." I am currently writing my first legal thriller. As a writer,  I have also worked as a staff writer for E! Entertainment on True Hollywood Story and TSI Investigates, and as a freelance writer for Reelz in Los Angeles.. With my creative, business, and legal experience, I truly understand my clients' goals, whether as artists, creative entrepreneurs or big business, in selecting and protecting an intellectual property portfolio that best achieves their unique objectives.
