Intellectual Property attorneys James Graber and Taylor Kent secured a win for our client, a Long Island-based smoke shop, obtaining the dismissal of a federal trademark infringement lawsuit brought against them.

When our client was faced with claims brought by a plaintiff with a history of targeting small businesses with trademark litigation, our team identified a strong defense early, challenged the accuracy of the claims, and pursued dismissal. The court agreed and dismissed the case in full.

As more organizations incorporate AI into their operations, the questions become less about what the technology can do and more about how it can be used effectively and responsibly within an evolving legal landscape.

Our AI team helps organizations navigate those questions through practical guidance informed by our own experience. Our attorneys work alongside an in-house technical team to evaluate emerging technologies, develop proprietary AI solutions, and help organizations understand what responsible AI implementation looks like in practice.

Last week, Managing Partner David Pfalzgraf and Partner Jamie Batt participated in the WNY Women’s Foundation Leadership Summit as panelists for “Stronger Together: Empowering Leaders Across Sectors to Drive Collaborative Action.” The session explored the role of allyship, mentorship, and collaboration in advancing inclusive leadership and creating opportunities for others.

We’re grateful to the WNY Women’s Foundation for bringing together community leaders for this important conversation and proud of David and Jamie for sharing their valuable perspectives!

"Holy cow. This is revolutionary."

That was Ben Burge's reaction the first time he used AI's deep research feature on a morning walk and came back to a 25-page legal memo he didn't have to write.

But here's the thing: AI can give you an answer. It can't give you accountability.

Listen to the full episode for Ben and Matt Miller's take on what AI really means for business owners, lawyers, and anyone who refuses to stick their head in the sand.

We’re proud to share that Managing Partner David Pfalzgraf participated in this year’s 117 Holes For Children’s golf tournament! David was one of just 17 golfers who took on the challenge, and we were honored to support the event as a sponsor.

117 Holes For Children’s is an annual fundraiser benefiting Golisano Children’s Hospital, a leading pediatric facility providing critical care for children and mothers throughout Western New York. From dawn to dusk, golfers played 117 holes to raise funds for the Patricia Allen Fund, which supports the hospital’s critical care team.

At Rupp Pfalzgraf, we are passionate about supporting our community and making a meaningful impact across Western New York. We’re proud to contribute to the incredible mission of Golisano Children’s Hospital and be part of such a special event.
