About Kenneth
Kenneth Booth combines an engineer's background and a lawyer's training. He earned a degree in electrical engineering from the University of Utah and later returned to study law at the same university, completing a J.D. He moved from technical work into legal practice at a time when patent law was becoming more central to technology companies.
He began his professional life as a research engineer in the operations engineering division at Pacificorp. That role gave him hands-on exposure to systems engineering and industrial operations. A few years later he shifted into law. He joined Trask Britt, PLLC as an associate and then worked as an associate at Cahill, Sutton & Thomas, PLLC. By 2000 he had moved into partnership-level work at Schmeiser, Olsen & Watts, PLLC, and in 2005 he became a partner at Booth Udall Fuller, PLC. Those moves track a steady progression from technical contributor to lawyer and firm leader.
Booth is registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office as a patent lawyer and as a patent agent. He is licensed to practice in Utah and Arizona. His technical training in electrical engineering often informs his handling of patent applications and technical opinions. Colleagues and clients have turned to him for drafting patent applications, preparing responses to patent office actions, and advising on patentability questions rooted in electrical and software technologies.
His professional network includes memberships in technical and management organizations. He has belonged to the Brigham Young University Management Society since 2001 and is a lifetime member of the Tau Beta Pi engineering honors society. Those affiliations reflect an ongoing engagement with engineering and business communities outside the courtroom and the patent office.
Over the course of his career Booth has moved between private practice and technical work in ways that shape how he looks at intellectual property. He brings an engineer’s attention to technical detail together with practical experience in patent prosecution and client counseling. He is a partner at Booth Udall Fuller, PLC, where his practice centers on patent matters and related intellectual property work.
