About Andrew R. Hein Andrew R. Hein Partner & Founder of Crown Point Advisors LLC INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ADVISOR OF THE YEAR Why did you choose IP law? My undergraduate degree was in engineering, and so IP law was a natural outgrowth from that interest in technology and learning how “things” worked in our world. I am still in the IP field because of similar reasons. Every day you learn about new technologies and meet and help brilliant people who are changing the world. How do you measure your success? Success is providing the best results possible for our clients and building long-term and meaningful relationships with them. We are proud of the fact that we work with the world’s largest and most innovative companies on their most important matters and many of our clients have worked with Crown Point since its founding over a decade ago.
