Jaksha Christopher Tomic

Call him: Jaksha

Fun fact: Jaksha’s favorite hobby outside of work is taking his dog to the park.

Jaksha earned his J.D. from St. John’s University School of Law in 1999 while working at Lehman Brothers. He also graduated with a major in Economics and a minor in Political Science from Hobart & William Smith College in upstate New York. Jaksha worked as a junior associate with Dilworth & Barrese, LLP while attending Hofstra University at night, from which he graduated with a B.S. in Chemistry. While a Hofstra, Jaksha conducted research in food science alongside a professor, and they presented their work at an American Cancer Society student meeting. That same research resulted in a peer-reviewed journal of which Jaksha is co-author. Jaksha later worked as an associate for the Connecticut office of Cantor Colburn, an intellectual property law firm. In 2005 he returned to Dilworth & Barrese, LLP where he became a partner in 2012. There, he worked in the chemical arts for corporations, mid-size companies, and individual inventors.
