Chernoff Vilhauer LLP

Chernoff Vilhauer works with inventors to safeguard their intellectual property by securing and enforcing patents, trademarks, and copyrights. We also provide advice on related issues including trade secrets, licensing, franchising, unfair competition, and false advertising. But theres more to our law firm than that. Were told that while our attorneys are impressive professionally theyre also truly down-to-earth and blessed with common sense. We take that as a huge compliment. Since our founding in 1970 when Jake Vilhauer joined Dan Chernoff, our firms culture has been more collegial than competitive. As a group, our lawyers are just plain curious about inventions, how they work, and how they might be received in the marketplace. Clients count on us for objective, upfront opinions on patentability as well as honest advice on the costs and potential benefits of obtaining a patent and how much protection is needed based on any inventions potential value.
