History
Since 2006, Ryan’s “insightful and pragmatic” counsel has helped clients navigate intricate legal waters. For example, he advised iTunes app Kanvas Labs concerning its copyright strategy to facilitate an acquisition by AOL; successfully resolved multimillion dollar circumvention allegations for Taiwan based tech hardware company LegendSky; and negotiated a complex sales agreement for SaaS company Alluring Logic (acquired by Proximity Insight). Along the way, he has written for TechCrunch, among others, about tech/media issues such as how companies should tackle AI “deep fake” posts.
