The Well-Rounded Life of An IP Attorney
Intellectual property attorney Jeremy R. Kriegel spends the majority of his professional time securing patents for his clients in the medical device and consumer product arenas. In a recent Chicago Lawyer profile, you can learn about his non-lawyer side.
Mr. Kriegel recommends his favorite Chicago restaurant: Café Iberico, where he enjoys bringing out-of-town guests “because it’s not touristy…and is a good reflection of Chicago.” He also shares his background, advice for future or new lawyers and anecdotes from his 15 years of practice as an intellectual property attorney, such as when he assisted a non-profit minority health information provider in obtaining a domain name for their Web site, and subsequently leveraged a major television network’s interest in that domain name to negotiate terms of a deal providing access to a national audience for the non-profit’s minority health message.
