Ryan Kaiser

Partner, Amin Talati Wasserman

Ryan Kaiser specializes in the protection and enforcement of trademark rights for businesses of all sizes. His diverse trademark practice includes counseling clients on the selection of new marks, clearance searching, U.S. and international registration, licensing, portfolio strategy, anti-counterfeiting measures, enforcement, oppositions, and litigation. Ryan also assists clients with the protection, enforcement, and licensing of copyrights.

For nearly two decades, Ryan has represented clients in a variety of industries, including food and beverage, dietary supplements, cosmetics, pet food and treats, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, consumer products, musical instruments, computer software and hardware, online media, automotive products, publishing, education, and sporting goods. Startups, entrepreneurs, and early-stage food and beverage companies frequently engage Ryan to provide strategic counseling in intellectual property matters. Ryan also provides buy- and sell-side due diligence support related to the merger or acquisition of a company or its intellectual property.

When issues of trademark infringement arise, Ryan is the attorney clients want on their team. While he has significant experience resolving trademark disputes through negotiation, he also regularly litigates before federal district and appellate courts as well as the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. Clients also turn to him when faced with domain name disputes, including Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) proceedings and lawsuits before courts in the U.S. and abroad.

Ryan is a sought after speaker on trademark and unfair competition issues and has served as Vice Chair of the Chicago Bar Association’s Food Law Committee.

When he is not busy protecting his clients” brands, Ryan enjoys traveling with his wife and children, learning (albeit, slowly) to play the guitar, and dabbling in ultrarunning.
