Why Oppenheimer Patents

Clarity

Intellectual property protection requires a patent application drafted with excellent writing, narrative drawings, and intelligible, finely-tuned claims.

My strength is technical knowledge combined with a flair for effective language.

I craft text and drawings that enable the patent office to quickly grasp your inventive ideas, bringing clarity to your new software and hardware concepts, or to business methods.

In short, I make high technology clear.

My formal college degree, from Cornell University, was "College Scholar," an independent study major. Effectively, I completed the requirements for a B.A. in physics and applied math.

With that background plus additional studies in programming and electronics, I am especially well qualified to document the technical "insides" of advanced systems – software code, communications protocols, register level ASIC functionality and interfaces for electronic chips, internal computer operations, communications protocols, and mathematically-based functionality (for example, digital signal processing).

For patent claims drafting, I find the essential concept(s) behind an invention and convey them with a calibrated choice of terms that minimize ambiguity while clearly defining the technology at hand.

Synergy

For corporate clients and start-ups, my experience in both technical writing and patent work provides a unique and cost-effective synergy.

Both patents and documentation entail learning curves, and learning curves cost money. By preparing both patent applications and also documentation for the related technologies, I can offer significant cost savings for the combined services. The combination of skills and effort in one individual is also quality conducive.
