Los Angeles Internet and Business Law Firm
There are few law firms in Los Angeles that possess all of the knowledge and skills that are necessary both to understand emerging e-commerce issues as well as defend your rights in court. As an internet law firm focusing in Internet and business law, I offer both.
I am a graduate of the University of Michigan and Loyola Law School of Los Angeles. I began my law practice in Los Angeles with Pick & Boydston, LLP and remain of counsel to the firm. Having litigated ground-breaking intellectual property, Internet and business cases, my career has been unusually varied, which allows me to provide value-driven legal advice to my clients. My office is located in downtown Los Angeles, but I maintain clients throughout the world, including Brazil, Singapore, Britain, Mexico and India.
E-Commerce and Internet Law
By combining my experience as a trial lawyer with my love of cutting-edge technology and business, I offer a unique set of legal skills to my clients. I can identify the crucial legal issues that may confront businesses employing new technology and distribution methods. I have counseled dozens of Internet start-ups as well as established businesses looking to expand their operations online. With careful planning and execution, I strive to keep emerging business clients out of litigation so that capital may be used for expansion of business operations.
Intellectual Property Protection on the Internet
As technology and the Internet continue to play a vital role in commerce, my practice has grown to meet new legal challenges. I have been involved in multiple copyright infringement cases related to websites and the posting of infringing content online. Additionally, I have recently been working on ground-breaking royalties allocation cases for the exploitation of various legendary musical works.
In the area of trademark and copyrights, I represent companies prosecuting and defending claims of infringement including cyber-squatting cases and domain name controversies. I have experience as a trial lawyer both defending and prosecuting intellectual property cases in state and federal court.
Experienced Litigator
In the realm of business litigation, my most recent success involved a multimillion dollar trial relating to commercial leases for the outdoor advertising industry. With millions of dollars at stake, I defended my client's right to maintain billboards along the 405 freeway in Southern California. After years of litigation and two weeks of trial, the court found in favor of my client.
My willingness and ability to take difficult and complex cases all the way to trial, if necessary, is another value-added service feature of my business and internet law firm.
