“Please Don’t Throw Me a Surprise Party: How to Anticipate and Resolve Intellectual Property Law Issues in Developing and Operating Real Estate,” Co-Author, Presented at the Annual Conference of the American College of Real Estate Lawyers, March 2016.
Surprise parties can be fun, but intellectual property issues are a party that require proper planning. This paper discusses two areas of intellectual property law relevant to the real estate industry. First, this paper explains how you can vet, protect, monitor, and enforce your rights in your project names and trademarks. Second, this paper discusses the theories of liability that may attach to a landlord for intellectual property infringement by tenants and best practices for minimizing the risk of being held liable for such intellectual property infringement.
