Rob is an intellectual property attorney who helps technology companies—particularly those developing advanced software, cellular and wireless technologies, electrical and complex mechanical devices, and optoelectronics—protect and leverage their innovations.

Drawing on his background in electrical engineering and business, Rob advises on every phase of patent procurement, from identifying patentable inventions to managing global portfolios and collaborating with patent offices around the world to secure robust protection.

In addition to obtaining patents, Rob counsels clients on software licensing, as well as trademark and copyright matters. He frequently conducts infringement analyses, performs due diligence for corporate transactions, and represents clients in disputes before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board and federal courts. Before practicing law, Rob spent five years in engineering, working on real-time embedded systems and wireless communications—technical experience that underpins his ability to translate complex technologies into commercially meaningful IP strategies.
