Seiter IP’s brand story is one of resilience, strength, and foresight. Despite our size and struggles, we are steadfast in our role as IP professionals to help our clients navigate the complex world of intellectual property and guide them in protecting their IP rights. The firm was founded by William J. Seiter, or Bill as he was fondly known as. Bill started the firm as a sole proprietor and a few years later, brought in Kiran, an attorney from Singapore, as his business and life partner. In 2013, Kiran and Bill expanded their IP firm to Singapore for the Southeast Asian region. 

 

After Bill’s sudden passing in 2019, Kiran decided to keep Bill’s memory and legacy alive by continuing the firm in both regions, ensuring that our commitment to excellence and dedication to our clients remains steadfast. Though Bill has since passed, his spirit and dedication continue to inspire us every day. Bill established the Seiter brand with a singular mission: to provide unparalleled expertise and guidance in intellectual property law. His passion for protecting IP rights with heart and honesty, going the extra mile for our clients, laid the foundation for our firm’s values and principles. 

 

Today, Seiter IP is led by two exceptional partners, Kiran and Marni, who bring over 30 years of combined experience to the firm. With a name that means "ray of light" in Sanskrit, Kiran embodies the illumination and guidance we strive to provide our clients. Her warmth, professionalism, and conscientious approach have earned her a stellar reputation in the field of intellectual property law, especially trademark law. Kiran's expertise in working with businesses ensures that our clients receive the most insightful and strategic advice. Marni is a seasoned expert with a deep understanding of the nuances of intellectual property throughout the Southeast Asian region, having been in the field since 1995. Marni complements Kiran’s strengths with her analytical prowess and dedication to client success. Her meticulous attention to detail and unwavering commitment to excellence have been instrumental in securing the intellectual assets of numerous businesses.

 

As we move forward, we remain dedicated to upholding the values and principles established by Bill. Our brand serves as a constant reminder of our commitment to guiding and protecting our clients with the same passion and dedication that Bill instilled in us. We invite you to join us on this journey, as we continue to shine a light on the path to innovation and success. At Seiter IP, your intellectual property is not just protected; it is nurtured and empowered to reach its fullest potential.
