About Michael
Michael Pesochinsky combines technical training and legal credentials in a career that bridges engineering and intellectual property law. He earned an M.S. in chemical engineering from Polytechnic University of New York in 1994, then turned to law and received a J.D. from Rutgers School of Law–Newark in 2007. That mix of science and law frames much of his work.
He began his professional life in technical roles before moving into corporate legal work. The record shows he served as general counsel for Cyweb Holdings in 2003. That early corporate experience exposed him to transactional and compliance issues, and it later informed his approach to client counseling and risk assessment.
Pesochinsky is registered as a patent lawyer with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. His engineering background supports patent prosecution and patent opinion work, especially in matters that require an understanding of chemical processes and technical specifications. He also handles trademark and brand-related matters, drawing on experience across both corporate and startup environments.
Licensed to practice in New Jersey and New York, he has worked across both jurisdictions on prosecution, counseling, and transactional matters. He runs an independent practice through Pesochinsky LLC and maintains an office presence tied to MyBrandmark.com. That combination reflects a practice that serves corporate clients, entrepreneurs, and inventors who need both legal strategy and technical interpretation.
Colleagues describe him as methodical and detail-oriented in analysis, and he tends to favor clear, pragmatic advice over legal theory. He writes and reviews patent applications, advises clients on trademark clearance and registration, and assists companies on intellectual property aspects of business deals. He also offers counsel on corporate governance and commercial agreements when IP is a central asset.
As he practices today, Pesochinsky manages matters that range from drafting patent claims to negotiating licensing terms. He works with clients in New Jersey and New York on matters that connect technology, brand protection, and corporate structure. He focuses on patent prosecution, trademark matters, and corporate counsel work across those jurisdictions.
