Casey Scott McKay practiced engineering before he practiced law. He built cybersecurity and identity-access governance systems at Fannie Mae and consulted on data science and machine learning at Thunken, Inc. — so when a client starts explaining their technology, he has usually been on the other side of the whiteboard.

At MC Law, Casey advises technology and science companies of every size, along with the investors backing them, across the full business lifecycle: company formation, IP protection strategy, fundraising, strategic transactions, and exits. He focuses on the legal decisions that actually move valuation.

His hands-on background in Java, Python, AWS, natural language processing, and machine learning lets him cut straight to the substance of a complex technical matter — work that pays off for clients in software, e-commerce, virtual reality, AI, robotics, healthcare, and education.

Casey also handles intellectual property litigation end to end — patent, trademark, and copyright disputes from pre-suit investigation through trial preparation — and prosecutes trademark and copyright applications, manages IP portfolios, and represents clients in TTAB and WIPO proceedings.
