Paulson Patent and Trademark Legal Services, LLC., is owned by Robert E. Paulson, Esq., a 1964 graduate of the Georgetown University Law School, where he was a member of the editorial staff of the Georgetown Law Journal. Paulson  holds a B.S. degree  in Nuclear Engineering from Kansas State University. He recently published his memoir, Not In Kansas Anymore: A Memoir of the Farm, New York City and Life With ALS (2009).

Mr. Paulson is a member of the Bar of the State of New York and 
is licensed to practice (Reg. # 21046) before the United States Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO").  He also has been admitted to the United States Supreme Court, the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals, and several federal district courts throughout the country.

 

Mr. Paulson has specialized in the practice of intellectual property law for 40+ years, at the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission and as a member of the New York law firm of Morgan & Finnegan from 1964-2004. He is experienced

in all phases of patent and trademark practice, including preparation of patentable novelty opinions; patent validity and  infringement opinions; patent  and trademark license agreements; preparation and filing of patent and trade-

mark applications in the USPTO and solicitation of same before the Office Examiners. Paulson's practice involved all phases of patent and trademark infringement litigation, including the Complaint ( or Answer), document discovery, written  interrogatories, oral depositions and pre-trial discovery motions, followed by trial and post-trial briefing and appellate briefs before the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals.

 

Representative of the clients Mr. Paulson represented in his law practice at the Morgan Finnegan firm are Osteonics Corporation, Stryker Corporation,  the Brown and Williamson and British American Tobacco Companies, Procter & Gamble Company, Endo Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Sanford Redmond Company, Slater Electric, Inc. and U Control Packaging, LLC.  In particular, Mr. Paulson was  a principal attorney representing the Osteonics and Stryker companies in  two highly successful infringement  litigations involving prosthetic hip implants.

concomitant  high charge per billable hour, Paulson Legal Services is able to provide its clients with  legal counseling at a reasonable and affordable cost. Paulson's extensive experience in his intellectual property law specialty makes

him uniquely qualified to provide knowledgeable counseling on patent and trademark matters.
