I represent a wide range of clients on matters ranging from intellectual property licensing to estate planning. Though I am now based in Washington, D.C., I have practiced with firms in Memphis and Atlanta. Additionally, I have served as a business development consultant to technology companies in both the telecommunications and intelligence sectors.
I decided to focus on my law practice to offer strategic legal services to clients at a reasonable rate. Entrepreneurs and individuals should not be charged the same rate that established companies are. In fact many established companies have entire departments dedicated to negotiating the best rates available for legal services.
I have addressed the convergence of intellectual property, technology and the creative industries to a variety of audiences including at conferences like SXSW and in publications like news.com. Politicians and journalists often use me as a resource for emerging legal issues related to the digital transmission of content among other issues.
In addition to my interest in corporate and intellectual property, I have a strong interest in social justice dating back to my childhood. Significantly, I have founded a variety of organizations that provide tangible services. For example, as a student in law school I developed the Domestic Violence Advocacy Center which provides legal services to victims of domestic violence. Additionally, I have been involved with a number of organizations that provide services to children and their families, including serving on the boards of the Harwood Center and Porter Leath Children’s Services.
I am a graduate of the Wake Forest University School of Law and the University of Wisconsin, Madison. I am a member of the District of Columbia Bar, the State Bar of Georgia and the State Bar of Tennessee.
