Veteran attorney Michael Kiklis launches boutique patent law firm

Alexandria, Va. – September 4, 2024 – Michael L Kiklis is pleased to announce the launch of his boutique patent law firm, Kiklis Law Firm, PLLC.

The firm, headquartered in Alexandria and situated near the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), offers a comprehensive range of legal services related to patent disputes, including trials before the USPTO’s Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB), appeals from the PTAB to the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, and patent litigation/arbitrations.

I am honored and delighted to launch Kiklis Law to bring a unique and dedicated approach to tech companies that requires the deep level of industry knowledge we offer.”

He has handled 100 PTAB cases, including more than 20 Federal Circuit appeals from those cases. Kiklis both enforces and defends the intellectual property rights of his clients and is often called upon to handle cases worth more than $100 million. He leverages his extensive background in computer science and years of experience in virtually every kind of patent matter, from cross-licensing and due diligence to bet-the-company PTAB trials and patent litigation. 

“Above all else, I am committed to helping my clients remain ahead of their competition and continue to innovate by providing effective, relevant legal counsel,” Kiklis said.
