Small Business Owners
Practical intellectual property counsel for growing businesses
Katz Group works with small business owners on a wide range of intellectual property matters, helping them protect what they are building while staying focused on running and growing their businesses. As a small business owner herself, Julie Katz understands the competing demands business owners face every day — from maintaining momentum and managing employees to serving customers and planning for growth.
A clear, business-focused approach
The firm’s approach is straightforward. First, we listen. Then we ask the right questions, develop a practical plan, establish a clear cost structure and execute with the client’s business objectives in mind. The goal is to provide thoughtful legal guidance without unnecessary complexity or surprises.
Helping small businesses protect valuable assets
Small business owners often face intellectual property issues at pivotal moments in the life of a business. Katz Group helps clients address those issues early and strategically so they can move forward with greater confidence.
Trademark and copyright protection
Launching a successful product or service with a strong name or creative assets is exciting — until another company claims infringement. Katz Group helps businesses and startups secure trademark and copyright protection so they can enter the market with greater clarity, stronger rights and less risk.
Website and online brand protection
A business’s online presence is often one of its most valuable assets. Katz Group helps business owners evaluate whether website content, images, branding and related materials are properly protected and whether ownership rights are clearly defined. The firm also advises on issues involving copied or overly similar online content that may affect brand identity and market position.

Strengthening contracts to protect the business
Well-drafted agreements can play an important role in protecting intellectual property.
