Sarah supports both multinational corporations and individual inventors as they develop and execute patent portfolio strategies.
Sarah drafts and prosecutes domestic and international patents, often working with clients who are seeking to protect their innovations on a global scale. While she is particularly experienced with wireless technologies, optics, software, and semiconductors, she works with a wide range of technologies, including medical devices, satellite systems, computer systems, and electronics, and represents a diverse clientele across a variety of industries. Sarah also has extensive experience securing standard essential patents and is well-versed in the sophisticated level of detail these require.
A former physics student, Sarah had always loved science but enrolled in law school when she found herself more drawn to theory than laboratory work. She thrives on investigating, supporting, and protecting new technologies, and she describes her favorite part of her role as simply helping inventors take early ideas and flesh them out into patentable innovations. While Sarah primarily represents major multinational corporations, she also assists smaller companies and individual entrepreneurs as they look to scale their patent portfolios.
Clients value Sarah’s quick mind and ability to rapidly grasp their technologies. However, she is perhaps best known not only for her own understanding, but for helping clients understand. Sarah knows that the patent process is complex and sometimes foreign to the engineers and inventors looking to patent their work, and she has a gift for explaining exactly what to expect and when, guiding clients through every step of prosecution.
