Vernon Maine founded the practice in 1993, and is licensed in New York, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire as well as before the United States Patent Office. He describes his job this way

“My function is really that of a team leader, working for the client, bringing together the creator of the IP asset for his or her knowledge of the subject matter, the client’s IP manager representing the client’s business goals and interests, myself representing the opportunities for securing legal rights in the IP, and our expert paralegal staff for helping to manage the myriad of details and legal deadlines that must be attended to in order to make it all work.”

Attorney Maine earned his B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Lowell Technological Institute, now University of Massachusetts, and his J.D. from Franklin Pierce Law Center in Concord N.H. now University of New Hampshire School of Law. He is a U.S. Army veteran, a licensed airplane and helicopter pilot, and has more than 15 years of pre-law engineering and marketing experience in large and small technology companies, dealing in U.S. and foreign markets. His background gives him a unique perspective and ability to appreciate and provide legal guidance in support of client goals and objectives.

In addition to managing the firm, Vern’s practice is particularly directed to patents and related issues, and to the development and management of intellectual property portfolios. He also provides due diligence support in mergers and acquisitions involving IP, and reviews related
contracts.

A few of his clients include:

• Anderson Power, Inc.
• Warwick Mills, Inc.
• Telco Inc.
• GT Solar Inc.
