Where can I find patent and trademark legal assistance?
Answer
The PTRC can only provide information for informational and educational use and does not constitute legal advice. It should not replace consultation with a qualified intellectual property attorney or legal expert. The resources and examples provided are intended to support research and learning. For authoritative information, United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO),the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), or consult a qualified legal professional. If you need help obtaining legal representation, the USPTO offers two programs that provide financial assistance for intellectual property legal services.
