About the practice
Westlake IP is a solo intellectual property practice focused on the life sciences: comprehensive, cost-effective patent protection in the United States, handled by a lawyer with the technical training to understand what is actually being claimed.
Large firms staff biotech prosecution across associates, agents and partners, and the technical judgment gets diluted in the handoffs. Here it does not. The person who reads your data drafts the claims and argues them.
