About

As an attorney I represent consumers, small businesses and emerging companies in competition issues often in high stress and volatile arenas where the client’s business is at stake. I work closely with founders and executive leaders, and help guide their businesses to success in the face of unfair and illegal business competition practices by third parties.
I am also a Law Professor, a Judge Pro Tem of CA Superior Court, a Certified Mediator, Special Master and legal author.

My work is renowned for its successes, and for being nimble, creative and strategic. With my team at the time in the LCD-TFT case we acheived the largest antitrust settlement of its kind in the history of the antitrust laws. As a result I have a unique ability to manage multi disciplinary projects, govern a myriad of attorneys and law firms, and navigate very complex challenges. Giving counsel as a legal advisor is part and parcel of this process.

My work in the contingency fee arena amply demonstrates my operational, leadership, management, business law, and planning skills in dynamic, changing environments common to emerging companies and technologies.

I bring focus, vision and judgment gained during a successful career, am committed to leadership of growing companies and contribute to help company leaders set direction and lead in turbulent, and often regulated, environments.

I have gained exceptional insight into business, people and their actions. I value getting it done, and communicating well with people from all sides of the table and all walks of life.
