Bernard Samuel Klosowski Jr. Bio
After flying for the U.S. Navy for over a decade and serving with General Colin Powell, USA (Ret.) on the Joint Chiefs of Staff, I became an electro-optics engineering center manager and eventually a Registered Patent Attorney with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).. My practice of law is focused on intellectual property. I seek to protect my clients' valuable intellectual property in the most efficient and cost-effective manner for the individual client.*. I obtain U.S. & international patents, U.S. & international trademark registrations, and U.S. copyright registrations for my clients. Furthermore, I help clients protect and enforce their valuable intellectual property rights, including, when necessary, via litigation in federal and state courts as well as in administrative tribunals such as the U.S. Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, the Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences, and the International Trade Commission.. My experience in patent prosecution includes mechanical, optical, computer, and electro-mechanical arts in which I have obtained hundreds of U.S. & international patents for my clients. I have also conducted dozens of patent non-infringement and validity analyses, trademark analyses and I have advised my clients with respect to copyright, trade dress, trade secret and domain name concerns.. My litigation experience includes copyright, trademark and patent infringement cases, from both the defendant's and the plaintiff's points of view. My cases have also included issues related to intellectual property, such as Unfair Business Practices and commercial disparagement.. I help clients improve their bottom line with their intellectual property. By way of a recent example, a well known national company purchased my regional client's patents and pending applications for nearly $20 million. In that case, I helped build the client's patent portfolio from scratch then assisted in its acquistion nearly 8 years later.. On the lighter side, I coach Little League and Travel Baseball teams and hope to develop our young boys into competitive gentlemen and to help them reach their God-given potentials on and off the baseball diamond.. *A South Carolina ethics opinion suggests that client testimonials are not permitted. However, AVVO will not remove testimonials because: "It is critical to Avvo’s independence and consumer credibility that attorneys not control whether reviews appear on Avvo. Accordingly, we do not delete reviews. As you can’t control whether reviews appear on your profile, there should be no issue with the SC Bar."
