About This Course

Join this dynamic CLE session to master the art of protecting visual design in the U.S. through trade dress, copyright, and design patents. Discover how to navigate the unique procedural landscapes—filing timelines, costs, and agency roles—for each protection type. The course breaks down infringement standards and unpacks the essential legal thresholds: originality for copyrights, distinctiveness for trade dress, and ornamentality for design patents.

Using vivid hypotheticals and real-world case studies, the program illustrates strategic ways to blend or choose these tools to shield a product’s aesthetic, empowering practitioners with actionable insights.
