Conflicts of Interest Policy

Because of the large number and diversity of clients Trenner Law represents and has represented over the years, we deal with subject matter in most technology areas. Therefore it is impossible for Trenner Law to agree to represent any single client exclusively in any particular field of endeavor, even if those clients may be competitors in the marketplace.

While Trenner Law does not represent any client in which there is a direct conflict of interest, Trenner Law may represent clients in similar fields of endeavor. For example, Trenner Law may assist more than one client to file a patent application for a toy invention, as long as the claims of each invention are different. As another example, Trenner Law may assist more than one client to file a trademark application for competing businesses, as long as the marks are not confusingly similar to one another. 

You hereby expressly consent to such representation and waive any potential conflict of interest.
