My practice focuses on turning my clients' innovation into value using business savvy, efficient and cost-effective intellectual property strategies that lead to wins in the marketplace before trying to win in the courtroom. I love to litigate, but hate that my clients have to.I manage all aspects of intellectual property acquisition, monetization and enforcement, including complex patent litigation, trademark litigation, copyright litigation, trade secret litigation and all aspects of patent and trademark prosecution and portfolio management. I also focus on complex commercial matters, advertising disputes before courts and the National Advertising Division of the Better Business Bureau, products liability, antitrust matters and enforcement of restrictive covenants. I have experience managing all aspects of domestic patent prosecution and litigation relating to consumer packaged goods, electronic exchanges, insurance industry, telecommunications, financial products, mechanical and electrical devices, and prosecuting patent applications before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. I also advise clients on intellectual property transactions including technology development agreements, confidentiality and joint development agreements, licensing and mergers and acquisitions. I bring over 12 years’ experience as Chief IP Counsel for multibillion-dollar companies holding thousands of worldwide patents and trademarks. While in-house, I developed licensing strategies for the licensing in and out of next generation technologies, managed due diligence process for the acquisition and disposition of patents and advised on litigation and defensive strategy relating to litigations. I managed an entire global patent and trademark portfolio for the North American operations of consumer products companies having over $12 billion in annual revenue while developing strategic technology areas to drive company innovation, directing innovation and patent filing and protecting their global patent portfolio through strategic interaction with foreign patent counsel. As an in-house attorney, I developed keen insight into the challenges businesses face, what constitutes quality service from outside counsel, and how to meet or exceed a client’s budget expectations. I have litigated cases in various U.S. District Courts and have argued multiple cases before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. As a former in house counsel, I understands budget pressures that in house IP counsel face, and treats my clients as I expected to be treated when I was the client.
