Law Firm Overview
VERN MAINE & ASSOCIATES, FORMERLY MAINE & ASMUS, is an intellectual property law firm of U.S. registered patent attorneys and highly skilled staff providing patent and trademark services to clients both domestic and international. Clients need more than just patent drafting or trademark searches to accomplish effective management and commercial exploitation of their intellectual property assets. Over the years, the firm has developed a relatively straight-forward, cost effective approach to handling the complex legal and procedural aspects of contemporary intellectual property support. Maine & Asmus provides practical and common sense direction and assistance, cultivating a client relationship where clients gain a better understanding of the basics of intellectual property ownership and exploitation, of the intellectual property interests and potential within their own business, and how they can best employ legal counsel to advance those interests. The firm coordinates foreign filings and prosecution through our affiliated foreign agents.The goal of the firm is to contribute to its clients' success. Its motto is that "Intellectual Property is the Business of the Future."
The firm's attorneys examine a client's situation, then selectively apply the appropriate legal and procedural mechanisms and tools from among their intellectual property tool inventory, to advance the client's goals, either directly or indirectly. The attorneys counsel management at several levels on intellectual property matters. Selecting, using and protecting trademarks effectively, often requires close coordination between the marketing staff and the attorney. Regarding inventions, the attorneys prefer to have access for interaction directly with the inventors to assure the technology is well understood and to generate a quality work-product in the most efficient time frame. At the same time, the attorneys need to interact with business managers to discuss the commercial potential and business plan for the invention, so that appropriate intellectual property strategies are part of the planning process. Not least of all, the attorneys' advice management about possible infringement issues and licensing opportunities. The personal dedication and efforts by the entire law firm staff result in cost effective legal services of the highest professional quality.
