GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo. — Leyendecker & Lemire, LLC, an intellectual property and business law firm providing Intellectual Property (IP) and business-related legal services to entrepreneurs, individual inventors, and businesses of all sizes, announces three recent patentees whose inventions include a vitamin supplement hangover remedy, an automatic pill dispensing device and trademarked NeedleView™ endoscopes.

Leyendecker & Lemire represented patentee William Halamicek, a systems analyst at Strategic Products and Services and founder of Hangover Painover LLC, located at 6165 Clearwater Dr. in Loveland, Colo., in patenting a vitamin supplement hangover remedy last month. The cherry-flavored supplement comes in powder form in single-serving packages, can be mixed with water or fruit juice, and works best if taken the night of alcohol consumption, although it can also be taken the following morning.

“Hangover Painover is a great preventative and cure for hangover symptoms,” says Halamicek. “It prevents or lessens headaches, nausea, etc., and lets you function throughout the next day. It is easy to take on the go and is fast acting in any situation.”

Halamicek’s product has been field tested and offers a scientifically balanced, synergistic blend of safe vitamins and nutrients that can be taken before, during, or after drinking. For more information about Hangover Painover, visit www.hangoverpainover.com or contact Halamicek via email at bilhala@msn.com.

Leyendecker & Lemire is the legal correspondent listed for NeedleView™, a new trademark registered in December 2012 in the category of medical instruments products. The U.S. federal trademark registration was filed for NeedleView by BioVision Technologies, LLC, located at 221 Corporate Circle, Suite H, in Golden, Colo. BioVision Technologies develops and manufactures innovative micro-visualization solutions that enable endoluminal and minimally invasive medical procedures in both human and veterinary medicine. Needleview incorporates a very small high resolution imaging technology; the 18-gauge NeedleView endoscopes are micro-sized, resilient, and can be inserted into small joints with ease. BioVision Technologies has integrated unique imaging technologies and customized micro-endoscope solutions to reduce incision size and speed healing.

R/X Automation Solutions, located at 1830 Boston Avenue, Suite A-B-C in Longmont, Colo., has been granted a patent for a pill dispensing device for use in automated pharmaceutical prescription fulfillment.  The device offers the most accurate and reliable performance in the industry.

R/X Automation Solutions’ ScriptPick™ Single Channel Unit-of-Use Dispense & Labeling System is a fully automatic process tool designed to dispense and label high running single item Unit of Use products within the mail order and central fill pharmacy environments. The system will dispense any shape Unit of Use product, label the product and discharge the labeled product into a tote or onto a conveyor.

Timely dispute resolution, litigation avoided

December 19, 2012

GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo. — Leyendecker & Lemire, LLC, an intellectual property and business law firm providing Intellectual Property (IP) and business-related legal services to entrepreneurs, individual inventors, and businesses of all sizes, announces four critical, recent settlements in favor of its clients. 

Leyendecker & Lemire successfully settled a dispute regarding the ownership of copyrights to advertising collateral in favor of a graphic designer client, in which the client retained ownership of the work product created. In a second IP dispute, the firm successfully settled a copyright dispute concerning the infringement of architectural plans in favor of a client. In this action, the client received a five-figure cash settlement.

“Much of our work involves finding the most expeditious, as well as advantageous, outcome for our clients,” says Peter Lemire, Leyendecker & Lemire co-founder. “We are very pleased, as are our clients, in these particular outcomes. None were arrived at easily, but all were fair, equitable and accomplished in a timely manner.”

The firm also recently successfully settled a bankruptcy adversary action for a creditor client in an action by the bankruptcy trustee, who was attempting to pull back payments made to the client from the debtor.

A fourth resolution eliminated expensive litigation for a client when Leyendecker & Lemire obtained a cash settlement for a client from a manufacturer that was making a knock-off of its design patent-protected product and using a product name that infringed the client’s trademark. The settlement was obtained within a month’s time.

            One client, Denver native 4914, performed a few songs from his current album, “4914 Livin?” and signed CDs and posters afterwards. The artist has been said to bring a refreshing view on Hip Hop/Rap through an inspirational message of compassion and honesty.

            “We promised an old-fashioned House Party to exhibit and celebrate the achievements, patents and inventions of our clients – and that’s what we delivered,” said Founding Partner, Peter Lemire. “We had fun, the guests had fun, and the entire afternoon and evening felt like a celebration of many years of hard work. It was a wonderful moment in the history of our firm.”

            As the third space in the law firm’s history, the new suite of offices doubles the firm’s previous space and is located in the Denver Tech Center. Amenities include spectacular views, ample off-street parking and easy access to local residential and retail communities.

            “We felt particularly buoyed by this celebration,” said Founding Partner, Kurt Leyendecker, “because many of our clients’ businesses have grown alongside ours. It was an all-around recognition of many, many achievements and we feel very lucky to have clients as friends and vice versa. We are thrilled at everyone’s success.”

Moving a Law Office: 
More Than Just Herding Cats 
 
by Peter C. Lemire, Esq

      Some of you may have noticed that our firm has not published a new column in a few weeks now. The reason for this is that we were engaged in a Major Office Move.  You know the kind: anguished over for months, thought about repeatedly at 3 a.m. and again at 6 a.m. and over dinner with your spouse. But our move was inevitable. The firm has grown and along with that, we had outgrown our old office suite in more ways than one. In addition to simply needing much more space, we also wanted to be in offices that better reflected the firm’s character and personality. 
      This is, technically, our third space in the company’s history and we have been able to learn from our past experiences and plan for the future. For example, we learned that as you add attorneys to your staff, those attorneys tend to schedule meetings with clients and prospective clients. Also, if you have multiple meetings back-to-back and your main lobby is the size of a British phone booth, things will get crowded and look like I-25 prior to T-REX. 
      Generally speaking, this is not good for business.
      While I can’t say that moving a law firm, or any business for that matter, is something I would want to do on a regular basis (particularly when it comes to getting employees packed up and ready to go prior to the movers arriving), businesses can seize the move as a great opportunity to reflect upon where they have been and where they are going.
      A few columns ago I talked about the opportunities that spring provides to do some spring cleaning for your business. It was essentially a mini-audit for the business owner to determine if they were covering all the legal details necessary to ensure the vision they have for their company. As we were going through the process of finding new offices, I became aware that the moving process itself forces you to take stock of your company and start thinking about what that company will look like years down the road. 
      Through the myriad of necessary decisions inherent in moving a business — like office location, size, configuration and the type of building finish and personality — you are organically lead to essentially constructing a strategic plan for the length of the term of your lease.
      Where do I want to be located? How many employees do I have now and will have in the future? What does the space say about my company (or does it even matter)? How long do I want the lease to be? What are the main functions of my business and will we be adding any lines of business in the future that might need special accommodations or a special environment?
      It’s easy to consider staying put: but if one thing is certain it is the inevitable, change.
      It’s easy to think of the headaches of moving, but what if, instead, you and your staff spent the time leading up to the move as a fun exercise of strategic planning, goal setting and visionary pursuits that can revitalize your business and possibly open up opportunities that were not perceived before? What inadvertently happens is that you become more in touch with your company’s mission and can therefore take measure of how successful you are in keeping true to that mission.
      Sure: No one necessarily wants to stop and carefully think through the details of a strategic company vision. And the actual act of moving is often painful, much like herding cats.
      But a business move can be cathartic. Furthermore, the momentary pain of moving is temporary, yet the fruits of your labor are everlasting - especially if the new space has a great view, like Leyendecker & Lemire, LLC’s new offices. Come see the digs:5460 S. Quebec St., Suite 330, Centennial, Colo., 80111. We make good coffee.
