Simon Tam spent eight years fighting a government denial of his trademark application — through the USPTO, the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, the Federal Circuit, and ultimately the U.S. Supreme Court — and won unanimously. Matal v. Tam (2017) redefined First Amendment protections in trademark law and is now taught in law schools and universities across the country. This keynote brings the case to life through live music and storytelling, combining legal substance with an experience audiences remember for years. Approved for CLE credits. Suitable for bar associations, law schools, IP conferences, colleges and universities, and civic engagement organizations.
