Grow A Small Business Podcast Worked as an Intellectual Property lawyer in a large firm for 9 yrs, established his own law firm specializing in helping start-ups and small businesses to protect their inventions & brands with patents, trademarks & copyrights. (Devin Miller)
In this episode, I interview Devin Miller, the Founder, and CEO of Miller IP Law, an expert on Intellectual Property that specializes in helping start-ups and small businesses protect their assets with patents, trademarks, and copyrights. Devin established his own patent and trademark law firm after working as an IP lawyer in a large firm for 9 years.
While working in a large firm helping Fortune 100 companies with their intellectual property, Devin realized that there weren't good legal resources for startups and small businesses. He wanted to help other small business owners learn about patents, trademarks, and copyrights so they can build value into their businesses and protect their assets.
Devin says that one of the things that small business owners often don't think about is their patents and this is why they often fail in standing out from their competitors. People file patents to ensure that all the efforts they put into research and development and design are protected.
