Computer Science

Businesses developing software and other computer-implemented technologies face unique challenges in protecting their innovations. From artificial intelligence and machine learning to cloud computing, cybersecurity, computer vision, robotics, and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, obtaining effective intellectual property protection requires lawyers who understand both the technology and the law.

A number of Oyen Wiggs lawyers hold degrees or advanced training in electrical engineering or computer science and have experience working with software and computing technologies. This technical background enables our lawyers to work effectively with inventors, engineers, researchers, and technology companies to identify patentable innovations and develop intellectual property strategies that support their business objectives.

Our lawyers have prepared and prosecuted patent applications directed to computer-implemented inventions across a broad range of technologies, including artificial intelligence, data processing, cybersecurity, telecommunications, financial modelling, computer graphics and animation, gaming, medical software, and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. We also assist clients with copyright protection, ownership of software, software licensing agreements, and the enforcement of intellectual property rights.
