Trademarkabilities demystifies the trademark process so that you can effectively advance your client’s interests with confidence – all while saving you time and money. Stacey C. Kalamaras, Esq., started Trademarkabilities to share her passion teaching the law with the next generation of lawyers. As a young associate in big law, she was fortunate to work with generous colleagues with deep institutional knowledge and a roster of global clients with very interesting and intricate trademark issues, including international filing strategies, international enforcement strategies, anticounterfeiting strategies, licensing deals, and maintenance and renewal for large global trademark portfolios. This exposure, coupled with her prior business experience as a marketing and advertising executive, accelerated her learning and gave her a unique insight into her clients’ businesses where she favored practical legal advice. As she became more senior in her career, though, she noticed there were few formal IP training programs in law firms of any size and recognized how difficult it was for small and solo firm lawyers to learn key trademark processes to advance their learning. She created her online trademark academy to address that gap, giving all lawyers access to the same knowledge base so they can better serve their clients, have fulfilling careers as trademark attorneys, and have a built-in support system.
