About Nathan
Biography
I assist clients with protecting intellectual property in technical areas such as chemical and materials processing, mining, energy, explosives, aerospace, and nanotechnology. I prepare and file patent applications, work with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to obtain patents and trademarks for clients, and advise clients on IP licensing (i.e., monetizing IP through contracts).
