Others have served as in-house counsel in IP and other matters for technology companies. Still others have prior litigation experience.Because of our focus on computer technology, the firm also maintains close familiarity with constantly changing procedures of the US Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO) relating to examination of applications claiming software inventions and business methods. With this familiarity, our lawyers can guide you through the complicated and sometimes opaque environment that characterizes USPTO examination of these cases today.
