Law Office of Scot S. Fagerland I am a solo attorney in Los Angeles specializing in patents, trademarks, and other small business concerns such as incorporation and employment visas.

Intellectual Property services:

A valuable intangible that sprang from your mind is your intellectual property. You have a right to protect it so other people can not "counterfeit" or improperly profit from your creative efforts. A trademark is a brand identifier -- a brand name, slogan, or logo. Trademarks can be registered when your product is commerce-ready. It is a process that costs a few hundred to a few thousand dollars per mark, and takes a few months. A patent is a tangible "gadget" or a method, which can include software or an app. You can file a patent application as soon as you can fully describe how the product is made and used. The patent process has a lifetime cost of about $10,000 and takes a few years. It is a big commitment that I help break into manageable steps. I currently have my name on two issued patents and about ten pending applications. Immigration services

My experience is in the area of securing visas, green cards, and citizenship. The most common way to gain admission is through family. Visas and green cards are also available to students, workers, entrepreneurs, and investors. If you fit one of these categories, you may qualify for an F-1, J-1, E-1, E-2, H-1, or even an EB-5 visa. Though I do not specialize in issues of illegal crossings, arrests, and deportation, I have a close colleague who is an expert in "crimmigration" law and can quickly refer your case to her.

My latest 5-star Yelp review!

"I am writing to highly recommend Scot as an Intellectual Property (IP) lawyer. Our in-house start-up was in need of a trademark, and we were fortunate enough to work with Scot. From our first consultation, it was clear that Scot was highly detail-oriented and knowledgeable about trademark and copyright law.

"Scot's explanations were clear and concise, and he was able to save us a great deal of time by guiding us through the process in an orderly manner. He was always available to answer any questions we had, and he took the time to ensure that we fully understood every aspect of our trademark application.

"Working with Scot was a truly great experience. His expertise in IP law is exceptional, and it was like being served molecular cuisine by a chef graduated from Le Cordon Bleu. He is truly a master of his craft, and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone in need of an IP lawyer.

'In conclusion, if you are looking for a top-notch IP lawyer who is fast, detail-oriented, and knowledgeable, I highly recommend Scot. You will not regret your decision."
