The Photonics Patents™ blog is my personal blog. I am a patent attorney at Knobbe, Martens, Olson & Bear LLP ("Knobbe Martens"), but the Photonics Patents™ blog is intended to be used merely for informational purposes only; it contains no legal advice whatsoever. Publication of the Photonics Patents™ blog does not create an attorney-client relationship.

Nothing in the Photonics Patents™ blog should be interpreted as legal advice, solicitation for legal work, or assertions regarding the scope or validity of the listed U.S. patents, by me or by anyone else at Knobbe Martens. My comments are solely my own, and are solely based on publicly-available information. In fact, I don't think that I or anyone else at Knobbe Martens has had anything to do with most of the patents that I'll be listing.

No part of the Photonics Patents™ blog, whether information, commentary, or other, may be attributed to any of my clients or those of Knobbe Martens. Readers should be aware that Knobbe Martens and I provide counsel to many clients regarding patent protection, and therefore the Photonics Patents™ blog may occasionally report on news that relates to these clients. All information on the Photonics Patents™ blog should be double-checked for its accuracy and current applicability. Finally, while the comments submitted to this blog by others are moderated by me for appropriateness, neither Knobbe Martens nor I are responsible for the content, accuracy, or opinions of these comments.
