Who filed the most U.S. Trademark Oppositions in 2009?
Mar. 10, 2010
We filed over 100 trademark oppositions in 2009 before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
No other law firm filed anywhere near as many oppositions according to information compiled by Towergate Software. Some of the clients for whom we acted were Major League Baseball Properties and its teams, such as the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox, Sanofi-Aventis, A&P/Pathmark, Columbia Pictures, Six Continents Hotels, J. Crew, Juicy Couture, and Scholastic.
TTAB trademark oppositions are like streamlined law suits—with discovery, depositions, trial testimony, briefs and oral argument—but the evidence is submitted on a paper (or electronic) record.
