Trademark Lawyer's Guide To Dallas - INTA 2013
Presented by:
The INTA Annual Meeting is a time for learning, networking, touring, and more as thousands of trademark attorneys and practitioners from across the globe gather in Dallas. It is our pleasure to offer visitors this guide to many of the major sites and activities around town, through our trademark perspective. Because this guide is for use with the INTA (Registration No. 1914028) conference, we have, of course, included information regarding interesting trademark registrations! Special thanks to our law clerk Nick Santucci, who contributed to this guide.
