After more than fifteen years in patent law—including over a decade at a major firm in Manhattan—I founded Patrick IP Law to focus on the intersection of artificial intelligence and intellectual property. My belief is simple: the future of innovation requires a business-oriented, nimble, and more collaborative approach to patent protection.
AI is already reshaping how patents are searched, drafted, and analyzed. From natural-language tools that identify prior art to generative systems that support patent application drafting, the legal industry is entering a transformative period. My goal is to help innovators and organizations navigate this change with clarity and confidence.
Who We Serve
At Patrick IP Law, I work with two main groups:
- Startups and founders who need early, efficient patent protection before competitors move first.
- Law firms and in-house counsel seeking to modernize their patent practices with AI-enabled tools and workflows.
What's Next
In the coming weeks, I'll be sharing practical insights on patent strategy, updates on emerging law and USPTO guidance, and simple explanations of how AI is influencing the way we protect innovations. I'll also be publishing a biweekly LinkedIn newsletter, Pioneering IP: Patents in the Age of AI, for readers who want to go deeper into these topics.
If you're building, protecting, or investing in innovation, I invite you to follow along as we explore how technology is changing the way intellectual property is created, managed, and defended.
