Michael Leetzow is a patent attorney with 14 years of experience located in Lake Mary, Florida. Michael was an attorney at two very large Intellectual Property law firms in Washington, D.C. before going in-house as Patent Counsel at Corning Cable Systems in North Carolina. After four years, he opened his own Intellectual Property practice in his native state of Florida. Michael is a member of the Florida, Georgia, and Washington, D.C. bars and is admitted to practice before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
Michael has experience in all facets of IP practice. The majority of his practice is patent related, including patent application drafting and prosecution. However, he also advises clients about all aspects of the invention process, including confidentiality, patent validity and infringement, and licensing. Michael also advises clients on trademark and copyright issues as they arise. In fact, his first two cases in Florida were clients that had trademark issues on the internet. Most recently, Michael was an expert witness in a multi-million dollar patent infringement trial. The jury awarded the client over $550 million in damages and the case settled for $1.35 billion. Having been both the attorney and a client, Michael brings a perspective to the IP field that is different from many IP practitioners.
