About This Course

This CLE course provides a comprehensive guide to navigating inter partes proceedings before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office’s Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB). While these proceedings share many procedural similarities with federal court litigation, they are generally less formal and can offer a more cost-effective option for clients.

The course will cover each stage of the process in detail, highlighting key strategies, potential challenges, and common pitfalls to help practitioners effectively manage TTAB cases.
