Klemchuk Kubasta LLP Expands Its Virtual IP Counsel Practice

(openPR) - Innovative and unique program provides Intellectual Property guidance and counseling to new and growing companies

Dallas, Texas, October 27, 2009 – Klemchuk Kubasta LLP (www.kk-llp.com) is pleased to announce the offering of a new service. The Virtual IP Counselsm program, launching
November 1st will provide companies with an experienced intellectual property (IP) lawyer to serve as outside general counsel. Founding Partners Darin M. Klemchuk and Kelly J. Kubasta will direct the program and will enlist the support of the firm’s diverse resources.

“Many technology companies, particularly start ups and pre-first round of financing ventures, require IP law guidance and counseling on how to initially assess IP, acquire it, maximize their IP assets, and leverage those assets to maximize market share,” noted Mr. Klemchuk. “Virtual IP Counselsm works by providing these companies with the experienced IP guidance they need at predictable billing increments – often times at a fraction of the cost of an in-house lawyer.”

Through the program, Klemchuk Kubasta LLP IP lawyers provide counseling in the areas of copyright law including procurement and registration services, patent law including prosecution services, trademark and unfair competition law, as well as trade secrets law, technology law, and Internet and e-commerce law. In addition, the Virtual IP Counselsm program may include intellectual property licensing as well as product and software development agreements, employment agreements, and joint venture agreements.

“We understand the challenges entrepreneurs face and designed the Virtual IP Counselsm to fit the needs of growing companies,” stated Mr. Kubasta. “We encourage protection through pro-action. Using this unique program, we offer our clients the opportunity to develop a strong foundation that will provide both short-term and long-term benefits, without incurring the significant costs of hiring in-house counsel.”
