In a Clause 8 podcast episode titled “Commissioner Stoll on Being Part of ‘First Family’ of Patent Law,” intellectual property partner Robert Stoll discussed working his way up from being an examiner to being the former commissioner at the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
In the podcast, Stoll shared his thoughts on events that occurred while he was an executive at the USPTO and what he thinks about the current state of the U.S. patent system. He also commented on what it’s like to be part of the “first family” of intellectual property law, which includes Federal Circuit Judge Kara Stoll.
