We need to be real here. It's much more fun to plan a vacation than think about trademarks or patents. Planning vacations can lead to relaxation and fun in an instant. Many people are comfortable "jumping" on vacation plans. Many people have a wait-and-see attitude when it comes time to address intellectual property issues. In many instances, this attitude can lead to the loss of important intellectual property rights. However, this doesn't mean you have to lose your intellectual property rights if it is important to preserve your ideas. Brian K. Yost is a specialist in intellectual property protection. Brian K. Yost is a registered patent attorney and has helped many clients obtain trademark or patent protection. Brian is sensitive to the value of intellectual property, and will help you protect it.
