Overview

Andriy Lytvyn is a registered patent attorney and Board Certified Intellectual Property (IP) lawyer with thirteen years of experience in patent and trademark law. Based in Tampa, Florida, he is recognized by the Florida Bar as a Board-Certified Specialist in Intellectual Property Law—a distinction held by fewer than 150 attorneys statewide.

Andriy provides full-spectrum IP services, including patent and trademark prosecution, PTAB and TTAB proceedings, and Federal Circuit appeals. His practice combines technical precision with strategic portfolio management to help clients protect, enforce, and commercialize their innovations.

Since 2012, Andriy has secured more than 215 issued U.S. patents across industries such as software, telecommunications, medical devices, consumer products, and retail security systems. He also prosecutes and manages hundreds of registered trademarks for publicly traded corporations, private companies, and start-ups spanning automotive, retail, medical-technology, and consumer-goods sectors.

He has represented both patent owners and petitioners in over 30 Inter Partes Review (IPR) proceedings and participated in multiple Federal Circuit appeals, including DSS Technology Management, Inc. v. Apple Inc., 885 F.3d 1367 (Fed. Cir. 2018), where he served as second chair at oral argument and led all appellate briefing in a precedential decision that strengthened evidentiary standards for patent invalidation and remains widely cited nationwide.

Admitted to practice before the USPTO as a patent agent since 2009, Andriy gained early experience in patent prosecution before earning his law degree from Boston University School of Law, where he served on the Journal of Science & Technology Law. He graduated with honors from the University of Florida, earning dual degrees in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering.

Having practiced his entire career in Tampa, Andriy has a deep understanding of Florida’s business and innovation landscape and advises clients ranging from emerging ventures to established enterprises.

Outside the office, he enjoys emerging technologies, family time, fitness, watersports, and travel.
