"As a former US Attorney, I would only align myself with a first class organization," said Matthew G. Whitaker, World Patent Marketing Advisory Board Member. "World Patent Marketing goes beyond making statements about doing business 'ethically' and translate those words into action."
Matthew G. Whitaker is a former US Attorney for the Southern District of Iowa. He was appointed June 15, 2004 by President George W. Bush. Whitaker resigned in November 2009 following the appointment and confirmation of Nicholas A. Klinefledt, who was appointed by President Barack Obama.
