I have helped numerous clients from small inventors to very large corporations obtain patent protection in the United States and abroad for a variety of different inventions.
Don't underestimate the power of trademarks. A good trademark can be a very useful business asset. I have acquired trademarks for many different clients in the United States and abroad.
26 years
I have a BSEE from the University of Massachusetts. After graduating, I worked for Raytheon for several years. I graduated from the Franklin Pierce Law Center (now the University of New Hamsphire School of Law) in 1993.
I have been working in Colorado since 1998, primarily in the areas of patent and trademark law.
In addition to law, I volunteer with the Boy Scouts and 4-H. During the summer, my wife and I help disabled paddlers compete on a dragon boat race team.
