    The Best IP Law School!

    Welcome to the IP Mall

    It is estimated that by 2007, as much as 90% of the value of the world's top 2000 enterprises will consist of intellectual property (PriceWaterhouseCoopers, 2003)

    Pierce Law trains intellectual property, commerce, and technology professionals with skills to meet marketplace needs. Beyond other IP law programs, Pierce Law trains professionals to maximize IP value from inception to disposition including: IP identification, IP valuation, IP protection and IP leveraging. Pierce Law , without exception, has continuously been ranked by U.S. News & World Report as one of the top IP law schools in the country.

    As an extension of the home to the most extensive IP Library in the United States, Pierce Law presents the IP Mall [www.ipmall.info], an internationally acclaimed IP resource Website providing a unique collection of Pierce Law hosted intellectual property resources and links to the most valuable IP resources in the world (patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, licensing, technology transfer, etc.). The IP Mall is the creation of Pierce Law's Prof. Jon Cavicchi, J.D., LL.M and Sitesurfer Publishing's Bill Shaw, M.IP, J.D.
