About John B.
John B. Hudak combines formal legal training with advanced pharmaceutical education. He holds a J.D. from New York University School of Law and both a Pharm.D. and a B.S. in Pharmacy Studies from the University of Connecticut. That combination shapes how he approaches patent law and how he speaks to inventors and examiners.
Hudak completed his pharmacy degrees at the University of Connecticut, where he trained in clinical and pharmaceutical sciences. He then pursued legal studies at NYU, earning his law degree. The two paths give him technical fluency in chemistry and drug development alongside familiarity with legal doctrine and procedure.
He practices as a patent lawyer and operates the Law Office of John B. Hudak, PLLC. He is a registered patent lawyer with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and holds bar memberships in both Connecticut and New York. Those credentials allow him to file and prosecute patent applications before the USPTO and to handle matters that arise in either state.
His work typically involves patent preparation and prosecution for inventions tied to pharmaceuticals, drug delivery systems, and related chemical technologies. He drafts claims, prepares specifications, and responds to office actions. He also performs prior art searches and prepares opinions on patentability, freedom-to-operate, and validity when clients request them. His scientific background helps in assessing complex technical disclosures and in explaining those matters in legal documents.
Clients who hire him include individuals and small companies developing pharmaceutical products and related technologies. He works directly with inventors to capture technical details accurately. At the same time he handles communication with patent examiners and adapts arguments to the legal standards that govern novelty and inventive step.
The Law Office of John B. Hudak, PLLC is a small practice. That structure allows Hudak to handle matters personally from initial drafting through prosecution. He also assists clients who need counseling on patent-related strategies, such as filing sequences and international protection. He maintains active memberships in the State Bar of Connecticut and the New York State Bar and continues to practice patent law in both jurisdictions.
He currently practices patent preparation, prosecution, and related counseling at the Law Office of John B. Hudak, PLLC.
