Karan Singh, Ph.D.

Karan Singh represents technology clients ranging from emerging startups to large multinational corporations and consistently centers his legal advice on delivering practical, commercial value to the business. Karan manages global patent portfolios, evaluates third-party patent portfolios, and counsels clients on avoiding patent infringement. He conducts infringement, invalidity, and freedom-to-operate analyses, and provides assistance in patent assertion, litigation, and post-grant proceedings. Additionally, Karan mines client patent portfolios to identify assets for licensing and monetization, patent infringement counterclaims, and divestment.

In addition, Karan provides product counseling for clients bringing emerging technologies to market. He advises companies on product development while proactively identifying and mitigating legal risks associated with data privacy, regulatory compliance, competition, and consumer protection.

His comprehensive approach is backed by deep technical fluency across core technology sectors. In AI and data, Karan navigates the mechanics of large language models, agentic and physical AI, deep learning, and signal processing. For foundational infrastructure, he handles matters involving cloud and confidential computing, the Internet of Things (IoT), telecommunications, and complex computer systems. Finally, he advises on frontier innovations spanning digital health; wearable devices; brain-computer interfaces (BCIs); blockchain and distributed ledger technology; robotics; and virtual, augmented, and mixed realities.

Prior to entering the legal field, Karan received his Ph.D. from Cornell University, where his dissertation focused on modeling and managing chip multiprocessor (CMP) power consumption. He supplemented his doctoral research with advanced coursework in statistics and machine learning and spent two summers as a visiting scholar at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.
