Diane Chubb
Strategic Brand Protection for Scalable Growth
Diane Chubb doesn't just practice IP law; she masters it. Her career spans the history of the modern digital landscape, beginning with global enforcement at 20th Century Fox.
Having navigated every major shift—from the birth of the DMCA to the current AI revolution—Diane possesses a tactical "sixth sense" for brand protection. She provides the high-level architecture that transforms a business into a protected legacy. She knows how brands are built, and more importantly, how to defend their long-term value.
In Diane, clients get a strategic partner with 25+ years of seasoned judgment. While her specialized team at SK&C handles the meticulous execution of filings and documentation, Diane remains the lead strategist—uncovering the critical gaps that automated tools miss and designing protections that stand up under real-world pressure. There are no templated answers; there is only high-level counsel designed to deliver results.
Diane’s approach is proactive, not reactive. She secures IP assets early to prevent costly disputes—ensuring trademarks are strategically viable, copyrights are properly registered, and ownership chains are indisputable. When bullies or trolls push, Diane ensures you have the strategic leverage and the documented paper trail to push back effectively.
Diane’s experience is rooted in the high-stakes world of 20th Century Fox, where she helped steward a portfolio of 4,000+ trademarks, including The Simpsons. Since transitioning to private practice, she has continued to go head-to-head with industry giants like Monster Energy on behalf of her clients. Diane brings that same studio-level rigor to small and mid-sized businesses today. Licensed in California and Massachusetts and serving clients nationwide, she translates her "war stories" into battle-tested strategy—from brand architecture to licensing frameworks that drive revenue.
