Intellectual property such as copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets are valuable assets that help businesses distinguish themselves in a crowded marketplace. The intellectual property your company owns is part of its brand. Strong branding can add value and create new opportunities for your business. However, if your intellectual property isn’t protected, others may be able to profit from your company’s hard work and good reputation. Don’t let this happen to you.

Having served as in-house counsel for Fortune 500 companies for more than 30 years, Steve knows intellectual property law inside and out—and now he’s written a guide to help Georgia business owners learn the basics.
