CurrentKaufman & Kahn was formed more than 7 years ago to provide small- and medium-sized businesses with excellent law services.We are meticulous about each commercial litigation matter. Cases include copyright infringement, trademark infringement, breach of contract, non-compete agreements, defending against ADA cases, employment discrimination, and partner disputes. Written and oral arguments are clear, accurate and persuasive. “Collection work” is enforcing a contractual obligation – that is, the obligation to pay the client. We enforce judgments against assets. Winning a lawsuit is good, but getting money for the client is even better.Copyright law is not just theoretical, but the way for people who create original works to get paid for those works. Trademarks secure and protect a brand and the growing reputation every business wants. Registration is the first step. We file applications so clients are ready if infringement occurs, sometimes years later. When someone copies a client’s work or misleads consumers with a similar trademark, we send demand letters to try to resolve the dispute. If not, we are ready to sue, to stop infringement and to get the client compensated.We draft and negotiate contracts, including customer agreements, vendor agreements, intellectual property licenses, internet agreements, work made for hire contracts, and contracts of sale for real estate closings. Based on our litigation experience, each contract is designed to protect the client– making the agreement to be clear to a judge or jury. Unambiguous agreements are insurance to reduce or eliminate the need to litigate.The structure for a business protects its owners from individual liability. We advise businesses on corporate or LLC formation, partnership or operating agreements, and corporate formalities. Planning ahead pays off and protects against problems clients don’t presently anticipate.We get the work done, and you get back to business.
