Trademark Registration. Trademarks are the pictorial or written slogans or logos that allow consumers to recognize a business's products or services, distinguishing one business from another. In today's business world, trademark registration is an essential tool necessary to allow businesses to protect intellectual property rights. At The Dungan Law Firm, P.A., we register trademarks for our Buncombe County and Western North Carolina clients with the United States Trademark Office and the North Carolina trademark office. These services are provided for a flat fee.

Copyright Registration.Copyright registration allows the author of an original work of authorship to guard against potential copyright infringement. Numerous types of original works can be protected by copyright registration, including books, pamphlets, computer programs, works of fine art, advertisements, and maps. Failure to timely register with the Copyright Office can deprive a copyright owner of important rights in the event of a copyright infringement lawsuit. At The Dungan Law Firm, P.A., we provide clients in Asheville and throughout Western North Carolina with copyright registration with the US Copyright Office for a flat fee.
