Welcome
Built Around Responsible Use of AI
Ogilvie Law Firm is Patent Attorney John Ogilvie's solo intellectual property law practice. John has 40+ years in software and AI — with degrees in mathematics, computer science, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence — and 30+ years as a Registered Patent Attorney, including 18 years as outside counsel writing software and AI patents for Microsoft, plus significant litigation and transactional experience.
The practice is built around the responsible use of AI: using it efficiently to deliver quality work, and teaching inventors and in-house counsel how to use AI tools safely — because the wrong conversation can destroy patent rights before you even know it happened.
