When a major retailer introduced a product that used the famous PENDLETON trademark and one of the
company's heritage logos, IdeaLegal rapidly assessed the situation and developed a strong yet
sensible litigation posture that facilitated a favorable settlement. Mike ably briefed senior
management on the issues, possible scenarios, and costs, and he provided practical, business-focused
advice throughout.

with IdeaLegal on trademark matters. Mike understands brand marketing, and he quickly grasped
our unique business model. He has helped us develop strategies to protect and grow the company´s
trademarks. IdeaLegal sees the big picture and helps business people think of legal issues as
part of their strategy as opposed to a necessary evil.
