Internet Expert Witness - Special Master
In 2000, as MatchMaker.com was slowing winding down (for me), I had the opportunity to engage in some litigation support and expert witness work with a prominent Dallas law firm.
My former company, MatchMaker.com that was started in the 80’s addressed just about every area of the Internet Community and Social Networking / Media space. Today I have the Intellectual Property / Prior Art of the 1991 version of MatchMaker.com installed and running for the purposes of invalidating Intellectual Property Patent Claims. This Internet Prior Art will invalidate just about any Internet Social Networking / Community / Dating Patent Claim. Please see the link below for more details.
I have worked with lawyers on a wide range of different cases in many different practice areas.
