Steve Wigmore - Intellectual Property Lawyer

Steve was recently recognized by the Georgia Super Lawyers Magazine 2010 as a Rising Star. To be eligible for inclusion in Rising Stars, a candidate must be either 40 years old or younger or in law practice for ten years or less. While up to five percent of the lawyers in each state are named to Super Lawyers, no more than 2.5 percent are named to the Rising Stars list. Of the 2.5 percent named in Georgia, only twenty intellectual property (non-litigating) lawyers were recognized. Steve was in that top twenty.

In his law practice, Steve supports a wide range of patent clients: from sole inventors to large Fortune 100 Companies. Steve counsels start-up companies as well as individual inventors on how to build their intellectual property portfolios. He also advises clients on how to maintain and enforce mature portfolios. Steve serves both American and International (non-U.S.) clients seeking to protect their innovations and ideas in the United States.

Steve helps companies and individual inventors secure patents from the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office and other Patent Offices throughout the World. He has successfully represented clients in appeals of their patent cases to the Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences (BPAI). Steve has also prosecuted several trademark applications successfully to registration. His experience has also included preparing and negotiating license agreements for patents, trademarks, and copyrights.
