  Nicole Gaither – Trademark & Copyright Attorney for Conscious Fashion, Beauty, & Visual Artists

  I’m a trademark and copyright attorney with extensive experience managing, enforcing, and defending IP portfolios for clients across various sectors, including e-commerce, consulting, food and beverage, beauty, art, cannabis, alcohol, and non-profit. My practice includes trademark prosecution, TTAB proceedings, copyright registration and enforcement, licensing, and negotiating agreements that help brands grow and protect their assets.

  I’ve successfully handled complex disputes, such as prosecuting UDRP complaints that resulted in the transfer of infringing domains, and representing clients in TTAB oppositions and cancellations. My work also extends to copyright and royalty management for literary estates, as well as collaboration with universities and outside counsel.

  In addition to my legal practice, I serve as Clinic Supervisor & Adjunct Professor at Howard University School of Law, where I mentor law students and develop curriculum to expand access to trademark services for underserved communities. I regularly publish, present, and develop CLE and legal education content on IP and business law topics.

  Licensed in DC and Louisiana, CPA (Georgia), and currently pursuing a Master’s in Industrial Design to further expand my IP practice into design patents.

  Jomy Methipara – Partner at Dickinson Wright | Business Lawyer | Board Member | Intellectual Property (IP) Expert 

  If you’re looking for a lawyer who treats you like family, is invested in your success, provides strategic business advice through a legal lens, and is budget-sensitive, contact me at [email protected] – let’s explore how we can work together to build business, inspire and support one another.

  With a mechanical engineering degree from the University of Illinois, I spent five years in the medical device and aerospace sectors before transitioning to law. My passion for innovation and business led me to D.C., where I built a legal career focused on intellectual property, corporate law, and guiding entrepreneurs through complex business challenges.

  I started in transactional patent law, expanded into patent litigation, and have always been committed to supporting small and mid-size businesses. Entrepreneurs need more than just patents – they need strategic and comprehensive legal and business guidance to scale successfully. Since 2015, my practice has grown to include patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, M&A, entity formation, contract negotiations, capital raising, employment, healthcare and investigations. My goal is to provide holistic, responsive legal services that meet the evolving needs of entrepreneurs and executives in a complex business environment.

  As a partner at Dickinson Wright since 2018, I dedicate 25% of my time to mentoring and supporting small businesses, speaking engagements, and collaborating with universities, incubators, and accelerators. Supporting the growth of small and mid-size businesses not only fosters innovation but also strengthens our broader economy and community. More and more of the large and mid-market businesses rely on the efforts of the small business market for growth and expansion strategies. With our firm’s broad legal platform and expertise across all industries and technologies, my colleagues and I are well-equipped to assist in any legal matter.
