I grew up in Amherst, NY. I attended Erie Community College followed by Buffalo State College and Brunel University (London). I graduated from the University at Buffalo School of Law.
I have been married for over 30 years to Mary Turkiewicz, MD.. We have one daughter, Krystyna, who graduated from the US Naval Academy in 2014 and now lives in Hawaii. Mary and I are still active members of the USNA Foundation and I and the Chairman of the Permanent Chair of Polish Culture (an endowment fund) at Canisius College.
I enjoy golfing, bowling, scuba diving and skiing. Mary and I have traveled extensively throughout Europe, including Poland where we have visited distant relatives.
Prior to making the switch to Intellectual Property Law, I was most recently in real estate and commercial lending law. I was a part of the Insurer Defendants’ Steering Committee in insurance litigation on Love Canal. I’ve also been a District Tax Attorney for New York State.
We have residences in Chicago and Buffalo and truly consider both cities home. I’m energized about the entrepreneurial boom happening in Buffalo, New York State and the Chicago Metropolitan Area (most of us know it as Chicagoland) and am excited to hear from any companies or individuals interested in protecting their ideas. I look forward to working with you!
