About Helena
Biography
I was admitted to The Florida Bar in 1978 and to the State Bar of California in 1991.
I began my practice in the commercial realm, specializing in transactional matters, banking and other government regulation, as well as real estate and probate work. For the bulk of my career, and through the Bowles & Moxon and Moxon & Kobrin firms, I represented non-profit organizations in a large variety of areas, including copyright, trademark, and trade secret issues, contract review and drafting, bankruptcy, litigation, and dispute resolution. Starting in the 1990s, I was instrumental in establishing protections for copyrights and trademarks on the Internet. I represented plaintiffs in the first-ever copyright infringement suit over unauthorized online postings, a case that led to the passage of a federal law requiring service providers to remove copyright infringements from websites upon receiving notice, while protecting providers proactive in taking down such copyrighted material online.
I have been Of Counsel with the Law Offices of Timothy Bowles for five years, working extensively in the law firm’s employment specialty and also using my extensive experience to assist clients in the various areas of my practice.
