We are techies who speak legalese Explaining complex technology in precise, clear language is hard. We know how to do it.

An effective software expert witness must understand the legal issues in question. Software patents are legal documents, not engineering documents, and many engineers find them baffling…but we don’t.

We explain technical concepts to non-experts in a way that is easy to understand. That’s a skill we’ve carefully honed over years of practice.
