Client Reviews
"Cameron's firm, under his personal direction, has managed a patent portfolio of over 300 patent and trademark matters, in the US and many countries abroad, that was formerly handled by two general practice firms. We wanted to reduce our costs, yet have the same or higher work effort, and we found that his vast experience really counts! As a general counsel who doesn't work in IP law directly- I'm really impressed with him. He's not only incredibly bright, but he brings a real personal touch to his work - always willing to take a call without turning on the billable clock, always ready to help and turn things around. Great going, Cameron."
"Cameron successfully defended our multinational semiconductor company in one of its largest lawsuits to date. He was with us during patent licensing talks with a leading competitor, and when talks broke down, he led the team that defended the firm in a complex litigation in a US district court in New York (SDNY). His strategy and tactical activities in this bet the company litigation permitted a settlement still talked about a decade later."
