Patents

I work on both patent prosecution and litigation matters. Patent prosecution refers to the process of obtaining patent rights through a government agency, such as the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) or other countries through the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). It typically involves identifying the core aspects of an invention, conducting prior art research, drafting and filing the application, responding to office actions, and addressing any third-party challenges or opposition.

Since 2011, I have assisted clients with the preparation and prosecution of design, provisional, and non-provisional patent applications. My work primarily focuses on software and design patents, although I work across a broad range of patentable subject matter.

Patent litigation involves disputes over the unauthorized making, using, or selling of an invention covered by an issued patent. I have experience in data center architecture and processes, telecommunications, artificial intelligence, open-source software, and medical devices.
