As a practicing attorney, Mr. Mason has continued to use his programming and database development skills to oversee teams and vendors engaged in the defensible harvesting, processing, review and production of the massive data-stores that are exchanged during litigation. He is a recognized expert in these areas as well as in e-discovery. Mr. Mason has overseen and/or directly engaged in custom application development associated with all of these processes, and is responsible for designing and overseeing the development of FastPatentPartner's proprietary PAIR harvesting system, which was used to create FastPTODocs unprecedented file history database, as well as numerous other FastPatentPartner databases and technologies.
