Dear Friends

June 14th, 2010

I want to thank all of my friends and colleagues in Singapore, China and Japan for the kindness and hospitality you showed me during my recent trip. I believe it was a success and I look forward to my next visit. As I have said in the past, the spirit of innovation and entrepreneurship in these countries is remarkable. Our firm looks forward to assisting in further developing these characteristics.

As I alluded to in our last newsletter, we are very pleased to announce the addition of Alaine Doolan to the firm. Alaine will assist us in our growing trademark and litigation practice. Alaine is an experienced practitioner and a welcome addition to the firm.

It is a goal of the Michaud-Kinney Group to be vigilant in anticipating and recognizing the needs of our clients and to address those needs in a timely, effective and economically helpful manner. As always, we greatly appreciate and thank you for your continued patronage. If we can be of any further assistance to you, please do not hesitate to contact me personally at michaud@mkgip.com.
