Biography
The trusted choice among entrepreneurs, startups, and growing businesses.
Long Island patent attorney Daniel Weglarz is a life-long resident of Long Island. He is committed to aggressively protecting his clients’ intellectual property while forming a close relationship with each of his clients to ensure they are involved in every step of the process. He believes creativity and innovation are just as much a part of intellectual property protection as they are intellectual property creation, and he always welcomes opportunities for strategy discussion with his clients.
Daniel’s clients include passionate entrepreneurs from various walks of life, ranging from the new solo inventor with few assets other than his intellectual property, to the billionaire business mastermind seeking to maximize his investments. Daniel serves clients around the world, including entrepreneurs and businesses across the U.S., in Canada, South America, India, Germany, and Israel. He has a special interest in ensuring that start-up companies and growing businesses realize the levels of growth and success they deserve.
As an involved member of his local community, Daniel has been serving as a volunteer for the Smithtown Veterans’ Youth Program since 2008, is a current board member, and serves as general counsel for the organization.
Prior to founding his law firm, Daniel served in the Intellectual Property Law Group at Lincoln Square Legal Services, Inc., a non-profit charitable organization devoted to providing free legal counseling to low-income individuals, and was awarded the Archibald R. Murray Public Service Award for his exemplary commitment to serving the community. Daniel later worked at Lerner David Littenberg Krumholz & Mentlik, a leading intellectual property law firm, and the IP law firm of Matkowsky Law, P.C. At these firms, he worked on a wide range of intellectual property matters, including counseling entrepreneurs and businesses on IP protection strategies, drafting and prosecuting patent and trademark applications, performing prior art searches and trademark searches, forming new companies and auditing the business practices of entrepreneurs, drafting and negotiating business contracts, and working on patent, trademark, and business litigation matters.
