Roy Lin
Patent Attorney
About Roy Lin
Roy Lin is a veteran IP attorney who has spent significant time on both sides of the table — in private practice and as senior in-house counsel at startups and large technology companies. That dual vantage point is the foundation of his practice: he knows how patent strategy looks from the C-suite, how it fits into a product roadmap, and what trade-offs actually matter when resources and timelines are real.
His practice spans AI and machine learning, enterprise cloud software, cybersecurity, autonomous systems, IoT, and large-scale AI/ML deployment, with clients ranging from pre-IPO startups to Fortune 100 companies.
Roy's in-house background means he asks the questions a business leader would ask — and delivers answers built to last beyond the engagement.
