Franklin E. Gibbs is a registered patent attorney with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. He is experienced in the litigation and prosecution of patents, trademarks, and copyrights. Mr. Gibbs has advised numerous corporate clients on the development and implementation of intellectual property polices and procedures that further include the identification and safeguarding of trade secrets.

In his practice, Mr. Gibbs has worked with a wide range of clients from the individual inventor seeking intellectual property protection for simple inventions, to medium size and large-scale corporations, to multi-million dollar aerospace companies in complex licensing negotiations with entities such as NASA. He brings not only a diverse and rich educational and practical background to the firm, but an approach to intellectual property that focuses on the needs and individuality of each client.

Mr. Gibbs views intellectual property as an integrated body of laws that requires a practitioner to not only be concerned with the requirements in obtaining such property rights, but also demands that a practitioner has an understanding of long term strategies and analysis of licensing, cross-licensing, litigation, and negotiation that traverses any single area of the intellectual property field.
