Powerhouse Clients

B&O represents exclusively sophisticated international and domestic corporations. Our experience with such clients provides us with an understanding of the corporate environment and allows us to provide seamless extensions to their corporate in-house programs. Our clients do not choose us because we are the largest law firm in our area. We are, however, the law firm of choice for clients who want the power, flexibility, and personal attention that can be provided only by a boutique firm. Brief examples of some of our lawyer's experience on behalf of powerhouse clients include:

• As outside patent counsel, drafted and prosecuted hundreds of patent applications for Fortune companies in the United States and around the world.
• Contract development and negotiation in the successful purchase of a $50 million electric power plant and development of agreements for sale of cogenerated electric power from a Delaware refinery to public power utilities in Delaware, Maryland and Virginia.
• Infringement and validity analysis of Amoco patents pertinent to development of a resid oil supercritical solvent extraction process for a Louisiana refinery. Developed and negotiated the Amoco patent license.
• Developed and negotiated outsourcing agreements for a major oil company’s core financial systems, including SAP installations of Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, Inventory Control, and General Ledger.
• For Dynamic Business Systems (“DBS”) in Alexandria, Virginia, a developer of financial management software for Fortune companies, successfully negotiated development agreements and software licenses for multi-million dollar software transactions.
