WHDA’s electrical engineering and software attorneys have extensive backgrounds in high technology, and include former patent examiners, inventors, and engineers for international corporations. Our attorneys pride themselves on staying current not only in the latest technological developments, but also in the latest legal developments that are particularly relevant to these technologies. For example, our electrical engineering and software team actively studies case law relating to business method and software patents, as well as the evolving interpretations associated with means-plus-function claims.
