Alexander B. Stein

While in law school, Alex worked in the IP department for a global provider of data storage, virtualization, and cloud computing services, where he prepared and prosecuted patent applications, evaluated products for compliance with open-source licenses, and helped defend against patent-infringement allegations. Before practicing law, he worked as a senior software engineer in the medical device industry—designing, implementing, and automatically testing complex end-to-end systems for remotely monitoring patients with implanted pacemaker or defibrillator devices. Alex leverages these industry experiences to quickly understand complex technologies, explain those technologies in understandable terms to a variety of stakeholders, and to provide reasoned counsel that aligns with business objectives.

During law school, Alex served as the executive articles editor of the Michigan Telecommunications and Technology Law Review. For his third year of law school, he attended Stanford Law School as a visiting J.D. student, earning the Gerald Gunther Prize for extraordinary performance in Intellectual Property: International.
