Privacy, terms, and disclosures.
Privacy
The firm does not use analytics or advertising trackers on this site, and does not sell visitor data. Data is shared only with the service providers named below, as needed to operate the site.
Service providers
The site is hosted on Cloudflare, which processes each request, including your IP address, to serve and protect the site. Typefaces are served from the site itself.
Information collected
The site has no forms. The firm receives only the information you send voluntarily, by email or telephone.
How information is used
Inquiries are used only to respond to them, to perform conflicts screening, and, where applicable, to maintain a record of the engagement.
Retention
Inquiries are retained for the duration of an engagement and for a reasonable period thereafter. Records of inquiries and declined matters may be kept so that conflicts can be checked.
Requests
To access, correct, or delete information the firm holds about you, contact the firm.
Terms
This site is published by Radwan & Company ("the firm"), the business name under which Omar Radwan, PE, practices. He performs all of the firm's work personally. The site provides general information about the firm and its services. Nothing on this site is legal, investment, or engineering advice, and nothing on this site creates a client relationship or an engagement of the firm.
Engagement
Engagements with the firm are governed exclusively by a separately executed engagement letter. Sending an email or making a telephone call does not by itself create an engagement, an expert-client or advisor-client relationship, or any obligation on the firm to provide services. An initial conflicts and scoping conversation is provided without charge and likewise creates no engagement.
Patent agent registration
Omar Radwan is registered as a patent agent with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (Reg. No. 80626). A patent agent is not an attorney. The firm does not offer patent services: it does not conduct patentability searches, prepare or prosecute patent applications, or give clients legal opinions on infringement, validity, or freedom to operate, or any other legal advice. Technical analysis of infringement and invalidity as a retained expert, including prior-art searches and claim charts, is expert work performed at the direction of counsel in litigation.
Expert calls
Expert calls are limited to publicly available information. They do not cover material non-public information or the confidential information of any former employer, client, or research sponsor. Calls booked through an expert network are governed by that network's terms and by the terms agreed for the call.
Sending confidential material
Please do not transmit material covered by a non-disclosure agreement, a protective order, or the attorney work-product doctrine by unencrypted email until an engagement letter has been executed and an NDA has been put in place where appropriate.
Outbound links
The firm is not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of third-party sites linked from this site.
Intellectual property
All content on this site is © Radwan & Company, except where noted otherwise. Short quotations with attribution are welcome; bulk reproduction requires written permission.
Disclosures
A summary of standing practices that govern the firm's work. A fuller statement is provided as part of the engagement letter on each matter.
Independence
As of the date at the top of this page, the firm holds no equity, options, advisory shares, carry, or any other financial interest in any party to a matter in which it is engaged, and accepts no referral fees, finder's fees, contingency fees, or success fees. Any financial interest in a company that is the subject of an expert call is disclosed before the call. Compensation is the engagement fee, paid by the engaging party, at the rate set out in the fee schedule furnished on inquiry. No fee is contingent on the conclusion reached.
Prior employment and academic affiliation
The principal was employed as an engineer at Apple Inc. through September 2026, and is a doctoral student and graduate student researcher at the UCLA Henry Samueli School of Engineering, which receives research funding from companies in the semiconductor and electronic design automation industries. Any financial interest arising from prior employment, and any institutional or funding relationship bearing on a party to a matter, is disclosed to the engaging party before an engagement is accepted and is recorded in the engagement letter. Potential conflicts are checked before any substantive discussion of a matter or engagement.
If any of the above changes, the change will be stated on this page and disclosed in the engagement letter of every affected matter.
Confidentiality
Information shared in the course of an engagement is treated as confidential. NDAs are executed where the work requires one. Materials produced under an engagement are not reused in another engagement, and the identities of clients are not disclosed without permission.
Independence of opinions
The firm reports the conclusions its analysis supports, including conclusions that differ from the engaging party's prior position.
Questions
For specific questions on a matter, use the contact details before sharing confidential information.
