Our lawyers have undergraduate and graduate degrees in biochemistry, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering and physics. We speak our clients? languages, which allows us to vigorously and effectively represent them in virtually all areas of technology. When necessary, we partner with an extensive network of foreign law firms to ensure that our clients? patents are adequately protected in jurisdictions outside of the United States.

Most of our lawyers served as in-house counsel before joining Mayer & Williams. This experience affords us an insider?s perspective on the concerns that companies have when it comes to protecting their valuable IP assets. We possess deep experience in patent prosecution, business planning, development, strategic analysis and monetization of patent portfolios, patent validity and infringement options, and clearance studies.

Having shared offices with the inventors and innovators who bring technology to life, we strive to be involved in our clients' overall business strategies to help them more effectively leverage and monetize their IP resources. To that end, we often work closely with our clients to draft and perform IP portfolio analyses for venture capitalists and private offerings, prepare disclosure documentation for public offerings, and evaluate potential litigation risks.
