SPECIFICS OF PATENT LAW EXPERIENCE

Inventors like me and my work; I have been successful at turning my patent work for various clients into dedicated work. For example, in the 1990’s, Texas Instruments requested me to prepare patents exclusively for their digital imaging group. In the last 30 years, I have been fortunate to write hundreds of patents for a large research institute.

I have experience in a vast variety of sciences, mostly related to electrical and computer sciences. The bulk of my experience has been in processing devices and digital imaging, and communications systems, control systems, engine design, vehicle emissions control, semiconductor fabrication, analytical software, AI learning, medical electronics and devices. As stated above, technical understanding has never been a problem for me. I am not intimidated by new subject matter, and am always able to quickly grasp the invention to be claimed.
