PATENT STRATEGY
Need a patent for your invention? Then you need careful and candid counseling. Since the America Invents Act of 2011, patent law has become nuanced to such a degree that new strategies must be employed. We are the rare patent law firm with a USPTO trained patent attorney & software engineer who cut her teeth in fintech and in biotech.
Licenses, Agreements, contracts, negotiations
I help clients negotiate intellectual property licensing, royalty, sale agreements, crowd funding/financing, and other forms of commercial contracts.
BUSINESS STRATEGY
The startup and small business marketplace is considered a wild frontier by some. I am an entrepreneur myself, and am regularly called upon to counsel startups, accelerators, investors, non profits, and small businesses. Our firm buttons your company up to give it the competitive advantage.
artificial intelligence Regulatory compliance
Few lawyers — and fewer professors — have actually built the technology they advise on. I was developing deep neural network applications at the NIH beginning in 2003, decades before the current AI wave. That inside-out technical fluency is why companies, regulators, and judges call on me to make sense of AI and the fast-moving laws now targeting it.
TRADEMARK strategy
Fanciful, arbitrary, suggestive? I know the power of strong branding and will counsel you about your trademarks and trade dresses. I'll help you think creatively and analytically about your trademarks and counsel you to put it in a legally strong position for trademark registration.
Copyrights
You want to protect your art, music, photography, research, literature or any other form in which your creative idea is expressed. Our firm offers counsel to help you understand copyrights.
blockchain Technologies, DApps, cryptocurrencies, smart contracts, ALTCOINS, ICOs (Token Sales)
