He is also registered as a patent attorney in Canada and files and prosecutes applications in Canada through a Canadian associate. (Some foreign associates entrust Mr. Hamburg with filing, maintaining and prosecuting counterpart Canadian and U.S. patent applications
because it is efficient to have the Canadian prosecution mirror the U.S. prosecution.)

rendered many formal opinions and counseled clients regarding routine and complex intellectual property matters. He also has negotiated and drafted license agreements.
He began his career as an examiner in the U.S. Patent Office, where he received
