Although his recognition as a Registered Patent Agent permits him to represent others in all patent matters before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, Dr. Demchick limits his practice to patent matters involving inventions for which he is confident that his expertise will allow him to serve his client well. He will gladly discuss whether he is comfortable handling cases involving inventions in a particular field. He will err on the side of declining cases if he has uncertainty about his ability to do what is needed in the case.

Especially given his faculty obligations, Dr. Demchick also limits the number of patent cases he receives so that he can be certain to give each matter the energy and attention it deserves.

Dr. Demchick does not represent clients in court. However, he refers clients to a patent attorney who does represent others in court, if it appears likely that patent related representation in court is appropriate.

Although Dr. Demchick lives in New Zealand, please note that he is not a New Zealand patent attorney and does not represent others in matters before the Intellectual Property Office of New Zealand.
