His practice focuses on patent prosecution before the USPTO, IP strategy, and general guidance on other patent-related business issues. Having experience with various electrical technologies, including smartphones, computers, wireless communications, networking, semiconductors, and digital image processing, Doug has represented numerous small and large companies.

Doug loves helping clients develop strategic patent portfolios covering a wide variety of technology areas. However, he understands that patent protection is often just one aspect of a larger, multi-faceted business strategy. As a result, he looks for ways to maximize business value through patent assets.

Before becoming a patent lawyer, Doug worked as an electrical engineer for a major defense contractor in Houston, Texas, where he designed and developed software tools to support NASA’s Space Shuttle Program.
