About Boris
I got my feet wet as a former Trademark Examining Attorney with the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO), and, since then, have worked for over eight years in the private sector, almost exclusively in the intellectual property (I.P.) field. I currently work at an I.P. boutique law firm, focusing primarily on trademark (including unfair competition) and copyright legal matters, as well as domain name disputes and Internet law-related issues.
I have represented and assisted clients from
