I am happy to announce that I filed my first Pro Bono Design Patent Application. I accepted a pro bono client from the Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts organization (VLA). It feels great to “give back”! For the next pro bono client, I may look into doing a trademark application or response to office action. For more information on the VLA, go here.

I attended the National Association of Patent Practitioners annual conference last week
Hi Everyone,
I attended the National Association of Patent Practitioners (NAPP)annual conference last week. NAPP is an organization directed towards patent attorneys and patent agents, and keeps us up to date with the latest changes, laws, and rules with respect to preparing and filing patent applications at the USPTO, the PCT, and litigating of patents. The conference is also a nice way to keep up with old friends. Last week the conference was held at the University of Minnesota Law School in Minneapolis. More information on the conference can be seen here. The 2025 NAPP annual conference will (probably) be at the USPTO offices in Alexandria, VA.
Pro Bono Design Patent Application!
I am happy to announce that I recently found a pro bono opportunity to help someone apply for a design patent application. I am in the review stage of the process, but it feels great to give back to the community. Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts is the organization I am a part of that gives me pro bono opportunities with respect to patents, trademarks and copyrights. Their website is here if you are interested in volunteering, or if you are seeking free or low fee legal services.
