TRADITIONAL LEGAL SERVICES
Patent Application Drafting and Prosecution
I have over 20 years of experience in core patent services, including the drafting, filing, and prosecution of patent applications both in the United States and internationally. I bring extensive technical experience and a genuine enthusiasm for learning new technologies.
While technical competence is a baseline requirement for any patent attorney, my approach goes beyond that. While it is essential not only to identify what is patentably distinct in an invention, I also strive to understand the features of the invention that will resonate with the market — and to protect those as well.
Patent Portfolio Development and Management
Over the course of my career, I have developed and managed patent portfolios for companies that market a broad range of product offerings. My experience extends beyond drafting and filing individual patent applications; I work with clients over the long term to understand their business, their competitors, and the direction they see the market moving.
This collaborative approach often involves working directly with client engineering and R&D teams to identify recent innovations, conducting patentability assessments, and performing white space analyses. With this technology-driven focus, I can propose strategies to deliver the strongest possible protection — even for the most complex products.
I also have particular experience in mining existing patent portfolios to uncover additional patentable subject matter, helping clients further strengthen and expand their intellectual property protections.
