Where IP Law Meets Intelligent Machines
AI and intellectual property insights from an engineer turned attorney.
About DocketDino
Who's Behind the Dino
I'm Tyler — an IP attorney, electrical engineer, and self-admitted tech obsessive. I serve as IP counsel at a global medical device company, where I work across patent portfolio management, AI governance, and technology transactions for surgical robotics and AI-powered medical devices. My background in reverse engineering and red teaming LLM-based systems gives me a hands-on perspective on the security and IP risks that come with agentic AI, and I spend a lot of my time thinking about pre-launch risk mitigation and liability frameworks for autonomous AI in high-stakes applications. Before moving in-house, I was a patent attorney at Sterne Kessler Goldstein & Fox. With a master's degree in electrical engineering and a J.D., I live at the intersection of the technical and the legal — and DocketDino is where I write about it.
What We Dig Into
DocketDino covers the collision of intellectual property, artificial intelligence, and emerging technology — with a focus on the issues that matter to in-house counsel, patent practitioners, and legal technologists. Expect posts on AI governance and regulatory developments, patent strategy for AI and robotics innovations, red teaming and security considerations for LLM-powered products, and the practical realities of managing IP portfolios in fast-moving tech sectors. We break down complex topics with the technical depth they deserve — no fluff, no buzzword bingo.
Why Stick Around
Most legal commentary on AI comes from people who've never touched a model. DocketDino is written by an engineer-turned-patent-attorney who actually red teams LLMs, builds with AI tools, and advises on product launches — not just writes about them. If you want analysis from someone who operates at the intersection of the technical and the legal, you're in the right place.
