Driven by Early Curiosity, Committed to Protecting
Innovation at Every Stage.
Neal is dedicated to guiding clients through the
complexities of IP protection in a straightforward,
transparent manner. He understands that every
innovation represents countless hours of work,
creativity, and investment. From a young age, he was
captivated by how things work—taking apart and
reassembling his first computer at age seven.
Perhaps this early fascination with technology laid
the groundwork for his future in intellectual
property law, sparking a deep commitment to helping
others safeguard their ideas.
Neal maintains active involvement in professional organizations, including the Oregon State Bar Intellectual Property Section, the Oregon Patent Law Association, and the Federal Circuit Bar Association. These affiliations keep him connected to the latest developments in intellectual property law and provide him with an extended network of colleagues who share his passion.
At Portland IP, LLC, Neal aims to foster trusted, long-term relationships. By ensuring open communication at every stage—whether you’re exploring a patent application, responding to a trademark office action, or licensing your creative work—Neal helps clients feel confident about their IP decisions.
With Neal as your advisor, you can expect practical solutions, an unwavering dedication to your success, and a sense of partnership in transforming new ideas into valuable assets.
