Liz Arcus

Liz has built an impressive career spanning more than 17 years in intellectual property support, developing extensive experience in complex, deadline-driven patent and trademark prosecution across multiple jurisdictions / countries across the world. A significant achievement has been her progression through increasingly responsible roles, including more than 11 years with EIP US LLP and its UK operations, culminating in her current position as Senior Paralegal. Her experience encompasses managing client portfolios and critical filing deadlines, coordinating complex filing and prosecution documentation, monitoring budgets and work in progress, and working closely with attorneys, clients and overseas associates. She has also developed substantial cross-border knowledge of procedures involving the USPTO, European Patent Office, UK Intellectual Property Office and the WIPO PCT system.

During her seven and a half years with EIP US, Liz has established herself as an experienced patent paralegal with extensive knowledge of U.S. and international patent prosecution. She provides comprehensive support to attorneys and clients across all stages of the patent application process, including the filing and prosecution of U.S. provisional and non-provisional applications, continuation applications, design applications, and PCT applications. Her substantial practical experience has given her an in-depth understanding of USPTO rules, procedural requirements, and critical deadlines, allowing her to manage complex prosecution matters with a high degree of accuracy and independence.
