About
Ahsan Sohail is an intellectual property attorney at Quarles & Brady LLP whose practice focuses on patent matters. He assists with domestic and foreign patent prosecution, patent and claim drafting, responses to office actions, clearance reports, and patentability analysis. His work serves innovation in areas including biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, smart manufacturing, and mechanical systems, where legal protection depends on understanding technical details together with patent requirements.
Sohail earned a J.D. from Indiana University Bloomington Maurer School of Law and a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from Purdue University. His engineering education provides technical grounding for evaluating inventions and communicating with inventors, while his legal training supports patent strategy and prosecution. That combination is particularly useful when preparing claims, analyzing prior art, responding to examiner positions, and assessing intellectual property issues involving scientific or industrial technology.
Sohail previously worked for a multinational pharmaceutical company on studies involving new drugs, drug delivery methods, and statistical analysis. He now applies that technical background to patent work across life sciences and manufacturing technologies. His practice includes preparing patent applications, assessing patentability, responding to U.S. Patent and Trademark Office actions, and supporting clearance analysis for clients developing products, processes, and other technology-driven innovations.
Ahsan Sohail is admitted in Indiana and before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. His practice combines chemical engineering knowledge, pharmaceutical industry experience, and legal training in intellectual property. By translating technical information into patent-focused analysis and written advocacy, he helps clients pursue protection for innovations, respond to examination issues, and evaluate patent questions that arise during research, development, and commercialization.
