We offer a full range of intellectual property procurement and protection services and assist our clients in strategic planning for the establishment and management of corporate intellectual property portfolios. As part of our everyday operations we work with foreign associates located throughout the world. Founders Lynn Cassan and Scott Maclean offer clients more than 60 years of experience in drafting and prosecuting patent applications in the high-tech areas of electronics, communications and biotechnology.

Our services include preparing and prosecuting trade mark applications, providing infringement and validity opinions for patents and registered trademarks, preparing and prosecuting design applications and advising on copyright matters. We also have an extensive amount of experience in the preparation and prosecution of Plant Breeder's Rights applications and Scott Maclean was one of the first agents in Canada to gain experience in this area. In addition, we provide litigation services for proceedings in the Federal Court of Canada before which we have frequently appeared for motion and trial hearings.

Our firms practice exclusively in the area of intellectual property law and together offer clients the best possible services available in this important area of law. It is very important to us to be able to provide a highly personalized level of service to our clients and foreign associates, without run-away costs or inordinate delays.
