Bradley K. Lortz Partner Mr. Lortz has lived in Southern California since beginning an undergraduate
engineering program at Loyola Marymount University in 1984. Prior to graduation, he began working at Hughes Space and Communications
(HSC) where he spent his entire technical career in the design, development and production of satellites. After completing
his law degree at the University of Southern California, while maintaining a working relationship with Hughes as a contract
engineer, Mr. Lortz was granted the opportunity to learn patent prosecution in the Hughes Corporate Legal Department. With
the subsequent sale of HSC to Boeing, Mr. Lortz continued his practical education in intellectual property and patent prosecution
at a small Los Angeles firm where he acquired a solid grounding in the essential processes and strategies for securing and
evaluating patent rights. Following this, he established his own practice as a partner with Patent Venture Group out of which
Origin Law was founded and later merged with Karen Canady's practice to become canady + lortz LLP.
