About Brian
Brian Eutermoser trained first as a scientist. He earned a Bachelor of Science in mathematics and physics-engineering from Washington & Lee University in 2000. Six years later he completed his legal studies at New York University School of Law, receiving his J.D. in 2006.
Those academic credentials fed into an early legal trajectory that paired technical background with intellectual property law. He is admitted to practice in Colorado and is registered with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. That combination of admissions positions him to work on matters that sit at the intersection of law and technology.
Early in his career he served as an associate at Cooley Godward Kronish LLP. In that role he worked alongside patent litigators and prosecutors, drafting and prosecuting patent applications and supporting litigation teams. The work drew on both the engineering aspects of patent law and procedural practice in federal and administrative forums. His time at the firm offered exposure to a range of technologies and client needs, from portfolio development to patent enforcement strategies.
Colleagues and clients typically describe his approach as methodical and technical. He treats complex scientific detail as the starting point rather than an obstacle. That orientation is evident in how he frames prior art, crafts claims and prepares technical disclosures for examination at the USPTO. He also navigates the written advocacy required in office actions and related proceedings.
Outside the office he has remained closely tied to the technical communities that inform his legal work. His undergraduate focus on mathematics and physics-engineering gives him fluency in technical concepts that frequently arise in patent prosecution. That background helps him translate between inventors and examiners, and to anticipate technical questions that may surface during examination.
As of 2026 he practices in Colorado and before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. He continues to handle patent prosecution and related intellectual property matters, advising clients on securing and managing patent rights across a range of technologies.
