IP & TECHNOLOGY LAW

Patent 821,393 - Orville & Wilbur Wright, Flying Machine
Attorney: H.A. Toulmin, GW Law Class of 1882

GW Law has been a leader in intellectual property education and scholarship for more than a hundred years. When the Law School established a Master's of Patent Law program in 1895, its alumni had already written the patents for Bell's telephone, Mergenthaler's linotype machine, and Eastman's roll film camera, among hundreds of other inventions, and dozens more alumni had worked in the Patent Office. Over the intervening century, GW Law has bolstered its expertise in patent law with complementary strengths in copyright, trademark, communications, computer and internet regulation, electronic commerce, and genetics and medicine.
