He brings not only a diverse and rich educational and practical background to the firm, but an approach to intellectual property that focuses on the needs and individuality of each client. Mr. Gibbs views intellectual property as an integrated body of laws that requires a practitioner to not only be concerned with the requirements in obtaining such property rights, but also demands that a practitioner have an understanding of long term strategies and analysis of licensing, cross-licensing, litigation, and negotiation that traverses any single area of the intellectual property field.
At WHGC, Mr. Gibbs is credited with implementing a patent prosecution process that focuses on client needs including developing patent applications with a focus on litigation, licensing, international portfolio and management, and securing venture capital. Mr. Gibbs has also been successful in working with other firms on complex patent matters and coordinating efforts to defeat what has recently been coined as patent trolls.
