FOUNDER / OWNER
Richard Kirkpatrick
Richard spent the first several years of his young adult life serving as part of the Air Force, he was able to gain valuable experience in working as part of team and developing a cohesive unit working on one goal. After his service term was over he took a job with an engineering firm as part of the computer support division. This was the beginning of Richards’ journey into the digital support industry that was beginning to grow surrounding law and engineering firms.
After working for several different law firms, Richard, now 26, decided it was time to strike out on his own and ultimately started what is Patent Designs. This was born of the need he saw for the drawing services but also his desire to work directly with clients, one of the things Richard likes most is to make his clients happy.
The ever changing landscape that is IP law also provided Richard the chance to constantly see new things, and be working on new projects. He has built a truly unique team that is customer oriented, creating relationships such that Patent Designs operates almost as an in-house drafter.
Besides working Richard devotes his time to his interests and his family, he loves to fish in Alaska and will hop at the chance to do anything outdoors. Richard’s grandkids are especially important to him and he can often be found flying his paramotor around Eastern Texas with them.
