Trade Secrets
Intellectual Property
I am an experienced lawyer, with a diverse client base centered around intellectual property assets. I provide a full range of services, advising on corporate formation and governance, finance issues, intellectual property issues, including e-commerce and technology licensing. I represent companies as well as entrepreneurs. When required, I litigate disputes.

Employment Discrimination
Employment law is an ever-changing matrix of confusing, and sometimes conflicting, state and federal laws. I try to help my clients not get lost in the maze of minutiae, and stay focused on their objectives. For corporate clients, I provide counsel to stay compliant with workplace regulations and to handle potential disputes with an eye towards avoiding litigation. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. For employees, I advise with respect to employment agreements, matters of compensation, and termination scenarios. In addition, I frequently advise both technology companies and entrepreneurs on matters involving issues unique to intellectual property such as the assignment of inventions and the enforceability of non-competes. I have brought employment discrimination cases before the Equal Opportunity Commission.
