Overview

Micha is an attorney on Procopio’s Intellectual Property team focusing on U.S. and foreign patent prosecution. He has represented clients in a range of technologies including software-defined networking, machine learning, chip design, radar systems, and video encoding. Micha also has experience building patent portfolios for both start-up and established companies. He has worked as a researcher in the Physics Department at the University of California, San Diego in the field of microfluidics, culminating in a Ph.D.; externed for the Patent Pilot Program in the Central District of California; and worked on patent litigation in the life sciences, electronic, and computer fields.

Prepared and prosecuted patents covering various aspects of software-defined networking.
Prepared and prosecuted patents covering various innovations in machine learning and applications of machine learning.
Provided analysis of video coding patents for submission as standard essential patents.
Prepared patents relating to various aspects of a novel radar system to create a portfolio for a start-up company.
Worked with foreign counsel to secure patents in multiple foreign jurisdictions.
