As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are chosen from among a pool of the most prominent professionals and are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.
Holding considerable expertise in intellectual property, patents, trademarks and copyright, Mr. Buff attributes much of his success to his genuine love for his profession. Initially earning a Bachelor of Science in engineering from Syracuse University in 1966, he was inspired to the field of law by his father-in-law, who cited the field of patent law as a way to combine his love of writing and his background in engineering. Mr. Buff concluded his academic efforts at the Boston University School of Law, obtaining a Doctor of Jurisprudence in 1969.

Mr. Buff also excelled as an attorney with Riker Danzig Scherer Hyland & Perretti LLP during this time.
Since 2004, Mr. Buff has flourished as the chairman and a managing partner of Ernest D. Buff & Associates. In his present work, he emphasizes that a person can truly break away from the crowd if they have a good idea and the proper guidance in putting it together.

Throughout his career, Mr. Buff is most proud of the patent that he helped to obtain for a new type of material called amorphous metal.
Alongside his primary responsibilities, Mr. Buff has served as a member of the President's Advisory Council for Small Business since 2003.
