This course provides students with an opportunity to experience trademark law practice. After reviewing the fundamentals of trademark law, students will work through a series of simulations of trademark practice activities and proceedings, including selecting trademarks and conducting due diligence, registering trademarks, drafting a complaint, use of survey experts, preliminary injunction briefing and argument, settlement conference, summary judgment briefing and argument, and trial proceedings.
