Daniel Coughlin, Ph.D., J.D.

After graduating from Hillsdale College with a B.S. in Biology, Daniel Coughlin earned his doctorate in Biological Chemistry from the University of Michigan. He then received his law degree from the University of Toledo. Daniel became a licensed attorney in the State of Kansas in 2012, and with the US Patent & Trademark Office in 2013. In 2012, he began his practice at Coughlin Law Office.  For two years, he practiced at Mishler Coughlin Law Office with partner and local attorney Martin Mishler. In 2016, Daniel returned to his individual practice, Coughlin Law Office.

Daniel and his wife, Tamra, have six (!) children: Kaeb, Zoë, Ava, Ian, Simone, and Autumn. The Coughlin family enjoys spending time together outside, hiking and gardening. Apple tree grafting is a most recent hobby. Their Dexter cattle are growing and multiplying without them though, as the Coughlin family is temporarily living in Bloomington, Indiana while Daniel attends New Geneva Academy

Stuart Aller, Patent Agent

A native of Hiawatha, Kansas, Stuart has been writing and filing patent applications since 2019. Stuart started his career as a scientist for the state of Kansas and taught science in Hiawatha. Stuart then passed the United States Patent & Trademark Office’s Patent Bar to become a Patent Agent. You can read more about that in the Hiawatha World article

Lately, Stuart has been traveling around the state of Kansas giving talks and having round table discussions on protecting intellectual property. Stuart is happy to explain the difference between patents, trademarks, trade secrets, and copyrights, and how they can each benefit your business. 

Stuart is married to Amanda Aller, also from Hiawatha. Stuart and Amanda have three children: Madeline, Marshall, and Maylee.

Tamra Coughlin

Tamra Coughlin is the reason the law office exists in Sabetha. Born and raised in Sabetha, Tamra introduced Daniel to her small town that is thriving with entrepreneurial spirit.
