About Nathan P.
Nathan P. Suedmeyer combines technical training and courtroom work in a career that moves between engineering labs and legal briefs. He earned a B.S. in computer engineering from the University of Florida in 1999 and a J.D. from Stetson University College of Law in 2009. Those two degrees shape the practical and technical side of his practice.
He began his professional life as an engineer. After graduating from Florida, he joined Advanced Micro Devices as a technical marketing engineer in 2000 and moved into microprocessor design engineering in 2001. Those years at AMD exposed him to hardware design and product planning. The experience gave him fluency in technical concepts that later proved useful in intellectual property work.
Suedmeyer returned to school and completed law studies at Stetson. He entered the legal community in 2009 and soon associated with local and national professional groups. He holds memberships in the American Intellectual Property Law Association and several local bar organizations, including the Pinellas County Trial Lawyers Association, the Clearwater Bar Association, and the St. Petersburg Bar Association. Those affiliations reflect both his legal interests and his connections in the Florida legal scene.
He joined Larson & Larson, P.A. in 2009 as an attorney and by 2012 was identified as a patent lawyer at the firm. His practice grew out of the overlap between engineering and law. He is board certified in intellectual property law by The Florida Bar, a credential that signals a concentrated practice in that subject area.
Suedmeyer’s work ties technical subject matter to legal strategy. He handles patent-related matters and other intellectual property issues that require understanding of engineering concepts as well as statutes and case law. Clients and colleagues note his ability to translate technical descriptions into legal claims and to explain complex devices in plain terms for judges and juries.
He is licensed to practice in Florida and admitted to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit. His background in both engineering and law gives him a practical perspective on IP problems, from prosecution to dispute resolution.
His current practice at Larson & Larson, P.A. centers on intellectual property and patent matters.
