Patrick helps foreign companies sell their products in the US. His expertise is logistics, but his customers wanted to know that their brands could be used in the US. I reviewed his customer’s global trademark rights and suggested we extend these foreign rights to the US.

I want to meet the shipping logistics expert in your life. They get products to and from the US. Ask them if they want a competitive advantage for their services, then let them know I can easily help their foreign clients obtain US trademark rights.
