Seattle Trademark Lawyer
The IPKat's friend Peter Groves has just drawn his attention to the Seattle Trademark Lawyer blog. Piloted by Michael G. Atkins (left), a lawyer-shareholder at the Seattle law firm of Graham & Dunn, it provides some fairly concise and manageable information on US trade mark, trade dress and copyright-flavoured cases, ever-so-slightly treading on the magisterial toes of the TTABlog. The archives go back to November 2006, so it's a fairly recent addition to the IP bloggie family: the IPKat and Merpel wish it well.
