WHAT CLIENTS SAY

"With Richard you feel as if have a strong advocate on your side, someone who is not just fighting for you, but fighting for the best possible outcome."


MY CLIENT PHILOSOPHY

"As the former worldwide head of Intellectual Property Litigation for General Electric, I have a unique perspective on the challenges in-house counsel face in managing our matters. Needless to say, I remember all too well what it was like on the "inside". From pre-litigation strategy through trial, to managing budgets, communicating bad and good news daily, and helping in-house counsel with business leader communications and expectation management; I try to bear that in mind in all I do."
