Yinfei Wu has significant experience in trademark, copyright, and advertising law in both the United States and China. She advises clients and works closely with counsel around the world on trademark usage, counseling, clearance, prosecution, domestic and worldwide portfolio management, oppositions, cancellations, invalidations, litigation, and enforcement matters.

Yinfei offers trademark and anti-counterfeiting counseling to various Fortune 500 companies. She conducts searches and manages global trademark prosecution and enforcement matters for many publicly traded companies. Yinfei also handles opposition, cancellation, expungement, and reexamination proceedings before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB) of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), litigation in district courts, and investigations before the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC).

Yinfei's practice related to China focuses on enforcing clients' rights against counterfeiters and managing civil and criminal anti-counterfeiting actions. Through a clerkship with the City Attorney's Office of Nanjing, China, she assisted in prosecuting counterfeit product manufacturing and false designation of source of goods claims. Notably, Yinfei clerked and managed trademark litigation at two High Courts on the provincial level and the Supreme Court of China.

Yinfei offers experienced legal analysis and has worked on solutions for infringement risk-management matters. Her legal education and cultural background further allow for effective communication between clients and opposing parties during licensing negotiations, settlement conversations, and litigation.

Yinfei devotes time to pro bono matters, including working with the Advocates for Human Rights and for the Mille Lacs Homeless Connect.
