Biography

International intellectual property (IP) law practice including but not limited to biotechnology issues; client counseling on US and international patenting strategies; licensing and other agreements; and evaluations and opinions of patents. Areas of practice concentration include biotechnology, pharmaceuticals (including biologics and FDA-related issues), and alternative energy (including but not limited to biotechnological aspects of alternative energy). Practice also includes representing technology companies in all IP related aspects, including representing companies from the start-up stages of protecting IP and evaluating relevant technologies’ patent landscapes, to commercializing (e.g., licensing) IP and enforcing IP rights. Practice offers premium legal services (15 years of experience in IP law, with 12 years at Fulbright & Jaworski) at highly competitive, reasonable fees.
