Reading the roster in Irvine. Match the attorney to the asset: trademark clearance and prosecution, copyright licensing, trade-secret protection programs, and patent work are distinct practices, and patent prosecution requires USPTO registration. California's technology corridors mean deep benches in Santa Clara, San Francisco, and Los Angeles counties, but registration and enforcement practice is federal and can be handled statewide. Ask about flat-fee filings, search strategy before adoption of a mark, and enforcement philosophy.
