I am registered with the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office as a patent attorney.  I have about six years full-time equivalent drafting and/or prosecuting patent applications.  I have an M.S. in computer science (3.87 G.P.A.) from Portland State University (2003).  

My goal is to provide high quality patent law services for reasonable, affordable, flat rates.  I am focusing my legal practice on preparing patent applications, prosecuting patent applications and providing other patent law services.  I enjoy working with inventors and doing high quality work for a reasonable fee.  

My focus is working on patent applications for computer-related inventions, including hardware, software, Internet, mobile devices, telecommunications, semiconductor devices, electrical circuits and more.  I am not an expert in all these areas.  But I enjoy learning about new technologies and feel confident about my ability to prepare applications in a wide variety of subject matter areas.
 
In most cases, I provide my services for a flat fee that is negotiated up front.  I like doing work for a flat fee because it makes both your expenses and my income more predictable.  However, if you prefer paying by the hour, I can provide my services by the hour as well.
