Patent
Attorney Extraordinaire
A US Patent Attorney, law professor and founder of IPWatchdog.com, Gene Quinn finds time to lecture for a bar review course that helps aspiring patent attorneys and patent agents prepare themselves for the patent bar exam. Gene’s specialties as a patent attorney are strategic patent consulting, patent application drafting, patent prosecution and technology licensing.
Gene is also the inventor of a unique invention mining and patent drafting system, known as the “Invent + Patent System” that forms the basis of a detailed invention disclosure that can be filed immediately as a provisional patent application, or subsequently reviewed, modified, edited and supplemented by a patent attorney or patent agent before it is filed as a non-provisional patent application.
Gene is best known as the “IPWatchdog,” having launched a website of that name in 1999, and through the notoriety he developed from the website Gene has been quoted in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, LA Times, CNN Money and various other media worldwide.
From 2003 to 2007 Gene wrote a monthly column for Patent World and served on its editorial board. He’s also taught at laws schools at Syracuse University, Temple University and the University of Toledo, and he is currently an Adjunct Professor for Concord Law School.
Gene was a founding member and managing partner of Smith, Quinn & Associates, an intellectual property boutique law firm in New Hampshire, and later a founding member of White & Quinn, a patent boutique in Virginia.
Gene is admitted to practice law in New Hampshire, is a Registered Patent Attorney and is admitted to practice before the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.
