“Miyoung is highly regarded in the area of post-grant proceedings and a great addition to our group,” said Joshua A. Lorentz, Dinsmore Intellectual Property department chair. “Her background as a registered Korean patent attorney has allowed her to work with a worldwide network of associates and gives our growing practice even more diverse expertise.”

Crigler is an associate who specializes in trademark and copyright law, with a focus on trademark clearance, enforcement, and portfolio management, as well as copyright licensing and registration. She has worked on proceedings before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB) and finished second in the nation at the INTA’s Saul Lefkowitz National Finals as a member of Chicago-Kent’s Intellectual Property Moot Court team.

Dinsmore’s IP Department includes more than 100 attorneys, ranking the firm in the nation’s top 50 based on number of patent attorneys, according to IP Today.
