Chris Mitchell

Of Counsel

Chris Mitchell is a registered patent attorney with over two decades of experience in the procurement and protection of intellectual property. Although he has gained valuable litigation support experience in inter partes review (IPR) and federal district court trademark matters, his primary focus is the preparation and prosecution of patent applications before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. His expertise spans various technologies, including electrical, computer, and mechanical arts.

Licensed in Washington, DC, Ohio, and before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, Chris began his career in intellectual property in 2001 as a law clerk at a firm in Northeast Ohio. He has remained grateful for the opportunity to serve clients in diverse roles and assist them in protecting what they’ve worked hard to build. His clientele ranges from individual inventors to several Fortune Global 500 companies. Chris approaches each matter with purpose, care, and a focus on practical collaboration.

In his role as a patent attorney, Chris sees himself not merely as a legal advisor but as a counselor dedicated to helping clients achieve their broader goals. Outside of the office, he cherishes time spent with family, friends, and pets, valuing each day. Chris is always eager to embark on a hike or other off-road adventures.
