Most of the work involves source code review, reverse engineering, product teardowns, finding prior art, establishing evidence of infringement and non-infringement, etc.

Andrew has acted primarily as a consulting expert in litigation, and secondarily as a testifying expert witness, in the US and Canada; he also works pre-litigation to help determine if there is a reasonable case to go forward with litigation.

Andrew has extensive experience in software reverse engineering, undocumented APIs and internal interfaces, an examination of source code under a protective order for a patent, and trade secret issues. He is the author and co-author of several books on the internals of Microsoft operating systems and is an attorney licensed in California. He is based in the San Francisco bay area and will be guiding GreyB with respect to certain reverse engineering, patent infringement, and Evidence of Use studies.

The joining of Andrew’s experience in software reverse engineering and GreyB’s experience of hardware reverse engineering defines a relationship that we believe will further serve our clients’ needs.
