Who is Devin Miller?
I love start-ups. I run my own patent and trademark law firm to help start-ups and small businesses. I also founded my first start-up while earning my Law & MBA degrees. Since then, I have founded several 7 & 8 figure start-ups and enjoyed every minute of it.
Miller IP Law was founded by Devin Miller, a patent attorney that lives in Utah. As Devin worked for a large law firm helping fortune 100 clients with their intellectual property, he realized that there was not a good resource out there to help start-ups and small businesses understand intellectual property, including patents, trademarks, and copyrights. As a small business owner, Devin wanted to provide a resource for start-ups and small businesses where they could learn about patents, trademarks, and copyrights and how they relate to business to help small business owners like himself build value into their business and protect their assets.
Greatest Professional Mentor
His dad has been his greatest professional mentor. Growing up, he was heavily involved in multiple start-ups. He grew up watching him experience the joy of success and the downsides of failure. He taught him everything he knows and has fostered his passion for helping people like him with their intellectual property.
Devin was raised in Utah. He went to BYU (Provo, Utah) to get a double major in Electrical Engineering (EE) and Mandarin Chinese. He then went to Case Western Reserve University (Cleveland, Ohio) to get dual degrees, a Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) and a law degree (JD). Devin now lives in the small town of Mountain Green, Utah. Devin is also a father of 4 children and has been married to his college sweetheart for 10 years.
