After more than 20 years as an Intellectual Property attorney – including stints in prosecution, litigation, FTO, and clearance across electronics, software, aerospace, life sciences & biomedical tech – Michael has crossed the table to join Eden Rose USA as our dedicated IP recruiting specialist. Michael brings:

• Insider perspective – Michael spent years arguing patentability and defending trademarks; he now channels that courtroom & USPTO know-how directly into matching the right lawyers with the right practices.
• USPTO credentials – As a former patent examiner (autonomous-vehicle & navigation arts), he speaks both agency and firm, helping clients anticipate examiner viewpoints when they hire.
• Full-spectrum IP vision – From patents and trade secrets to copyright and branding, Michael’s coverage mirrors the talent mix AmLaw 200 IP groups need today.

When he’s not working on legal placements, you’ll find Michael at one with nature, paddling the lakes, or enjoying a round of golf in his spare time.
