About Stephen
Steve, a principal of Business & Technology Law Group in the Silicon Valley, emphasizes in his practice both the transactional and litigation aspects of business, technology, Internet and electronic commerce, cloud computing, intellectual property and unfair competition, and commercial matters.
As one of the early pioneers in the computer and technology law fields, he is a recognized author and frequent lecturer on, and practitioner in, domestic and international cloud computing, outsourcing arrangements, and related service level commitments; intellectual property protection and infringements, maximization of value from such assets, and enforcement and infringement of proprietary rights; Internet contracting and commerce; privacy rights and security issues emanating from usage of the Internet; U.S. and worldwide licensing and distribution transactions; start- up companies and related financing strategies; and alternative dispute resolution approaches and tactics.
Prior to becoming an attorney, Steve was a systems analyst and an advanced programmer on mainframe computer equipment in the Boston area.
After being graduated from lawschool, he practiced for several years as an Assistant Attorney General for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in both unfair competition matters and large- scale antitrust litigation. Following his relocating to California, Steve rose to become Senior Vice President, General Counsel, and Secretary of a computer services firm that in a short period of time grew from $40M to $200M in gross revenues as the country’s first pre-Internet application services provider, after which he entered private practice.
For more than two decades, Steve has been the author and editor of Thomson Reuters’ multi-volume authoritative and regularly cited work on the Uniform Commercial Code, West’s California Code Forms – Commercial, and serves on the Board of Editors of both Aspen Publisher’s Computer and Internet Lawyer and BNA’s Computer Technology Report.
Steve received an A.B. with Honors in Economics from Clark University in Worcester, MA, a J.D. from Suffolk University Law School in Boston, MA, and an Executive Management Program Certificate from the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH.
In March 2012, he was honored by President David Angel of Clark University by being invited to be one of the Alumni in Residence for several days in Worcester, MA. Currently, Steve is working with the administration and faculty of Suffolk University Law School in Boston, MA on the birth and implementation for a first of its kind at any law school in the United States of an Institute on Law Practice and Innovation.
