Dermot Horgan

I have had the privilege of serving the intellectual property needs of our clients at IpHorgan for the past 20 years. While my concentration is on trademarks, I also work on copyright issues, trade secrets, and on general counseling and litigation tactics. I believe that if you go all in, there is not much that you cannot accomplish. That is true before the USPTO, the TTAB, U.S. District Courts, the Court of Justice of the European Union, and the Supreme People’s Court in Beijing. I have had the honor of representing and assisting clients before them all and can confirm that energy and commitment lead to results. When I started IpHorgan, I had the mission of doing right by our clients, serving them through work hard, diligence, seeking always to provide great service, while forever being fair. It is a recipe that worked for us and our clients back in 2005, it works for us today, and I believe it will continue to work for us and our clients tomorrow.

I earned a B.C.L degree in law from University College Cork, Ireland. I was awarded a Barrister of Law Degree at Kings Inns Dublin and admitted to the Bar of Ireland. I was fortunate to represent Kings Inns in numerous debating tournaments, winning the British Isles Observer Mace (defeating two teams from Boris Johnson’s Oxford Union in the final), the Coyle Hamilton All Ireland, and the A.T.Cross All Ireland Solo Debating tournament. I was conferred with a J.D. while studying as a night student at De Paul College of Law.

Outside of work, I love traveling to new countries and places with my wife, good food, the outdoors, music, movies – especially the stories behind the movies, and reading.
