James Gibson

Associate Professor of Law; Director of the Intellectual Property Institute, University of Richmond School of Law
J.D., University of Virginia School of Law, 1995
B.A., Yale University, 1991

Jim Gibson’s research focuses on the effect of new technologies on traditional legal constructs, the formation and breadth of entitlements in intellectual property law and elsewhere, and the ways in which practice and custom in the real world inform legal doctrine. He will teach Intellectual Property in the fall and Computer Law and Copyright Law in the spring.

Gibson is currently an associate law professor at the University of Richmond, where he founded the law school’s Intellectual Property Institute. Before entering academia, he clerked on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, served on the staff of the U.S. Sentencing Commission, and was a litigator at Williams & Connolly in Washington, D.C.
