“My clients range from individuals with little technical training to scientists with advanced degrees. My varied background, which includes service in the military as well as years spent as a research scientist in academia, allows me to connect with all of my clients and to understand their various needs.”
Dr. Timothy D. Ardizzone concentrates his practice in patent prosecution, opinion work, post issuance review, and litigation in the fields of biotechnological innovations, medical devices and implants, chemical processes, laboratory equipment, alternative energy projects, and basic mechanical devices. Tim also works with trademark matters including prosecuting applications, providing clearance opinions, and protecting client’s interests in their trademarks and their use of marks in commerce.
