Bill takes a business-based, product-driven approach to the strategic development of patent portfolios, due diligence reviews of targeted companies and technology, and comparative evaluations of competitive patented technologies. He also works with clients to procure global patent protection for pharmaceutical inventions, and focuses on product protection strategies involving formulations, drug delivery technologies, and dosing methods.
