About

Patterson + Sheridan LLP is a nationally recognized technology law firm dedicated to protecting and maximizing the value of its clients’ intellectual property assets. With a practice spanning patent preparation and prosecution, trademark and brand protection, litigation, technology licensing, portfolio management, and support for mergers and acquisitions, the firm provides comprehensive, end-to-end IP solutions. Our attorneys combine deep technical fluency with legal acumen, enabling them to work seamlessly with engineers, scientists, and innovators to capture complex technologies accurately and defensibly. Founded on a commitment to partnership and client success, Patterson + Sheridan aligns its legal strategies with clients’ broader business objectives—from early-stage research and development through commercialization, global enforcement, and post-grant proceedings. The firm emphasizes an integrated, lifecycle approach to intellectual property, ensuring that patent and brand strategies evolve alongside product development, manufacturing scale-up, and investor expectations. This client-centric philosophy, coupled with efficient prosecution practices and cost-conscious billing structures, allows the firm to deliver high-quality legal services with exceptional value. Over more than three decades, Patterson + Sheridan has built a strong national reputation, securing tens of thousands of U.S. and international patents and earning consistent industry recognition, including rankings among top intellectual property firms. With offices across key innovation hubs in the United States and a client roster that includes leading global companies, the firm offers both local accessibility and international reach. Its enduring focus on excellence, technical strength, and collaborative client relationships continues to position Patterson + Sheridan as a trusted partner for innovators worldwide. - Patent Preparation + Prosecution We are one of the nation’s leading intellectual property and technology law firms, securing hundreds of patents every year for some of the world’s largest, most innovative companies. - Trademark + Brand Protection Your trademark is the heart of your brand. It’s an invaluable business tool and a hallmark of your marketing and branding strategies — that’s why it deserves unique attention and unyielding defense. Trust your trademarks to the team that high-profile brands around the world depend on. - Litigation + Dispute Resolution Protection of technology is a critical business tool. Your valuable patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets and other IP rights would be meaningless without the ability to successfully enforce them. If not effectively managed, however, intellectual property litigation can be needlessly time-consuming and expensive. As an intellectual property and technology law firm with former big-firm litigators, we are uniquely positioned to win cases—and to do so in a cost-efficient way. - Technology, Licensing + IP Transactions In addition to our deep technical knowledge and effectiveness in patent and trademark preparation and prosecution, Patterson + Sheridan has the knowledge and resources to effectively manage all aspects of a company’s IP portfolio. - Mergers + Acquisitions As a full-service technology and IP firm, we have an intimate understanding of the unique dynamics that intellectual property assets bring to corporate mergers, acquisitions and divestitures. We have advised clients in numerous complex and high-value M+A transactions, providing insight into critical issues such as exposure to patent litigation, freedom to operate, licensing and strength in key markets. - Risk Assessment + Compliance In addition to its deep technical knowledge and effectiveness in patent and trademark preparation and prosecution, Patterson + Sheridan has the knowledge and resources to effectively manage all aspects of a company’s IP portfolio.
