| Salt Lake City Patent Lawyer - Tyler R. Goucher |
||||||||||||||
| Tyler R. Goucher is an Intellectual Property Lawyer working as an associate at Kunzler & McKenzie, a patent law firm in Salt Lake City, Utah. As an associate at Kunzler & McKenzie, Mr. Goucher helps small businesses and independent inventors with patent, trademark and copyright services. Mr. Goucher is a Patent Attorney who counsels in all areas of patent, trademark and copyright prosecution as well as licensing and intellectual property litigation. As an associate in a IP boutique firm, I offer high quality legal services at a price unheard of in larger law firms with numerous attorneys salaries to support. Kunzler & McKenzie keeps their overhead low to provide you with the intellectual property protection you need at a price you can afford. With a law office located in Salt Lake City, Utah, I serve clients located from Ogden to Provo including clients in Layton and Park City. However, my services are not limited to Utah, I am also available to assist inventors and business owners throughout the country in patent, trademark and copyright acquisition, licensing and litigation. For those of you on a tight budget, I suggest conducting your own preliminary prior art search on the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) website www.uspto.gov to make sure your idea is novel. Searching the USPTO is free and will help you decide whether to enlist my services. For those with the funds, I can arrange a prior art search to be conducted on your behalf. In certain circumstances, where the inventor is confident that their invention is new, useful and nonobvious, I can draft and file an application with the USPTO without conducting a prior art search. Trademark searches can be performed on www.uspto.gov as well. While I advise a potential client to search the USPTO for potential problems, I caution that trademark law is a complex area and not all registered trademarks will eliminate your chance of getting a trademark. Therefore, I suggest you contact a Salt Lake City Patent Attorney to find out how I can help you succeed with your invention, trademark or business venture. Be sure to check out my Intellectual Property Answer's page for free answers to your IP questions. Similarly, I offer a Free Online Consultation or you may schedule an appointment to meet with me in my office.

| Patents |
Trademarks |
| A patent protects an invention. A patent is a property right granted by the Government of the United States of America to an inventor “to exclude others from making, using, offering for sale, or selling the invention throughout the United States or importing the invention into the United States” for a limited time in exchange for public disclosure of the invention when the patent is granted. |
Trademarks protect words, names, symbols, sounds, or colors that distinguish goods and services from those manufactured or sold by others and to indicate the source of the goods. Trademarks, unlike patents, can be renewed forever as long as they are being used in commerce. |
| Copyrights |
Business Organizations |
| Copyrights protect works of authorship, such as writings, music, and works of art that have been tangibly expressed. The Library of Congress registers copyrights which last for the life of the author plus 70 years. Copyright is a form of protection provided to the authors of “original works of authorship” including literary, dramatic, musical, artistic, and certain other intellectual works, both published and unpublished. The copyright protects the form of expression rather than the subject matter of the writing. For example, a description of a machine could be copyrighted, but this would only prevent others from copying the description; it would not prevent others from writing a description of their own or from making and using the machine. |
There are several business forms available within Utah. I offer counselling for executives, business owners, inventors and entrepreneurs on all business entity formation issues. Examples of business entities recognized in Utah include corporations, partnerships, and limited liability corporations (LLC).
