I used to know Bryan Farney quite well; we were partners in the same IP litigation firm. (I haven't been in touch with him in probably 15 years.) Do not underestimate Bryan. He's a brilliant and highly competent lawyer, a seasoned litigator, and a very focused individual. He knows the tech industry from the inside; in one incarnation, he was general counsel at Micron Technology. IIRC correctly, after that he was a partner in Brobeck's Austin office before that firm imploded. Personally Bryan is indeed a nice guy, but by no stretch of the imagination is he a pushover.
