Oregon: the full practice
As an Oregon attorney, I offer everything to Oregon clients: patents, trademarks, copyright, trade secrets, and AI governance.
Medford and the Rogue Valley
Home base: Medford, Central Point, Ashland, Jacksonville, Phoenix, Talent, Eagle Point, and White City. Jackson County's mix of manufacturers, health systems, consumer brands, and startups generates every kind of IP question, and client meetings happen here by appointment.
Klamath Falls
One of Oregon's strongest inventor pipelines per capita, anchored by Oregon Tech and an active entrepreneurship community. I have presented for the Klamath IDEA Center for Entrepreneurship and work with inventors and teams throughout Klamath County.
Grants Pass and Josephine County
A serious maker and manufacturer community with homegrown software companies. Trademark, trade secret, and patent work all show up here.
Roseburg and Douglas County
Timber-products country with practical, buildable inventions and family businesses protecting brands and know-how.
Northern California: patents and federal trademarks
I am not a California attorney, and I am careful about that line. What I offer California clients is federal work: patent matters and trademark registration before the USPTO, which a registered patent attorney and licensed attorney may handle for clients anywhere in the country. California state-law questions go to California counsel.
Siskiyou County: Yreka, Mount Shasta, Weed
My literal backyard; Yreka is about an hour from my office. These communities already treat Medford as their metro, and now they have a patent attorney who treats them the same way.
Redding and Shasta County
A growing innovation economy with forest-products invention culture, an active startup community, and new advanced-manufacturing projects choosing the area.
Chico and Butte County
The strongest innovation node in the far North State: a university entrepreneurship pipeline and a deep bench of physical-product companies, which means real patent demand.
The rest of the North State
Humboldt, Del Norte, and neighboring counties, including Eureka and Crescent City: patent and federal trademark matters, handled remotely as easily as across town.
And nationwide
Because USPTO practice is federal, inventors anywhere in the country can work with me on patent matters, and businesses anywhere can work with me on federal trademark registration. Modern patent practice is remote by nature: USPTO filings are electronic, and most inventor interviews happen over video regardless of geography.
How remote work actually works
Video-first
Strategy calls and inventor interviews run over video or phone. Documents move by email and secure links. You never need to drive to Medford to get a patent filed.
In person by appointment
When meeting matters, I meet clients by appointment at 7 Crater Lake Ave, Suite 7A in Medford.
Local when it counts
I present regularly to regional entrepreneur and business groups. If your organization wants a plain-English IP talk, ask; there is no charge for community groups.
