About Patrick
Biography
I run a full service IP law practice. Of course. Someone has said that to a business, making money is like breathing - it is vital, absolutely vital, but you don't want to be thinking about it all the time! The legal service I provide is like that. It is there; it is vital. And there is more to life.
My clients are my friends. I want the best for them, in their whole life. My advice, services and strategies address whole people with real lives, running vital, planet-changing businesses. I invite you to call me; relax and share some of the things that matter to you. If we generate a question, or an opportunity for a conversation, I look forward to talking to you. Soon!

Client Review
Patrick has done a great job pushing the US PTO to get our claims considered. He has a great technical understanding of our products and has a sharp intellect with capability to understand and argue technical matters from many areas.
Patrick Michael Dwyer's Lawyer Endorsements
"Patrick brings an excellent personality to patent law. He's able to communicate in regular language which I think is important for an attorney doing such rigorous work. I look forward to referring cannabis clients to him as that area grows into patentable products (which it is!)."
"Patrick is my go-to guy when I have a patent question or need to refer a client who is in search of a patent attorney. He is always willing to answer my questions and has been a joy to work with!"
"Working as the only lawyer in a medium size business is a lot like being the family doctor: everyone comes to you with everything, and they expect you to handle it all. Every once in a while, however, you need to refer to a specialist. Intellectual property is one of those areas where I on occasion need help - and Pat has been our source for trademark and IP assistance for many years. He provides good, practical and cost-effective advice, and understands how business clients think. He is consistently a pleasure to work with."
"Patrick is a briliant lawyer and astute patent and Intellectual Property law practioners. He and I worked on many matters togther over the years and he is one of the very best. I knew Patrick when he was a law student and he and another law student from University of Puget Sound Law School won the National Giles RIch Moot Court competitions, a prestigious award presented by the American Intellectual Property Law Association. I have worked with and watched Patrick's career develop since he started practicing law and cannot recommend him highly enough."
"I've known and respected Patrick Dwyer for over 15 years, and think highly of his abilities and his balanced approach to representation of his clients."
"I've worked with Pat Dwyer on a number of matters; I've done trademark work for clients of his; and I've unhesitatingly referred patent work to him. He is a relaxed, accessible lawyer who takes the fear out of patent protection."
