Company: Sisson & Banyas Attorneys at Law, LLC

When someone starts a business, they generally have a product or service they sell that is different than other people. For example, most people have a favorite pizza restaurant. And that’s because they are all different. But if you wanted to open your own place, how could you be sure no one else could use your recipe? You work with an attorney who specializes in protecting “intellectual property”. Sisson & Banyas Attorneys at Law are well known attorneys in that field and help people protect their trade secrets, trademarks, patents, and other intellectual property.

What’s a trademark? A trademark is words or a picture that is used to represent your brand. If you look at the items in your classroom, you will see trademarks all over the place! Amazon has a smile, Nike has a swoosh, and Crayola has the top of a box of crayons.
