Patent Litigation

To protect and defend patents, outsmarting the competition requires legal strategists with sophisticated technical knowledge to approach patent disputes with creativity and confidence.

We have litigated hundreds of complex patent cases in federal district courts throughout the country and before the International Trade Commission (ITC) and the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB). Drawing on our team’s decades of experience and deep technical knowledge, our team is known for its ability to address complex technical issues in ways that judges and juries understand and support.

Our hard-earned reputation as one of the premier patent litigation firms in the country comes from two key assets: superb trial and negotiation skills, and scientific knowledge and experience. We see the whole picture, and are adept at developing sophisticated case strategy, from pre-suit investigations to appeals in the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.

More than 90 percent of our team has technical degrees in science or engineering. Many of our team members also have insights from direct experience in industry or academia in their chosen fields. This allows us to delve into the science and technology to gain a deeper understanding of the core issues raised by the patents at issue. There is simply no area of technology where we cannot serve our clients’ interests.

Our high-powered intellectual property (IP) team is just part of the story. As part of a large global firm, we draw upon the skills and knowledge of others practices, working cohesively with our colleagues in international trade, antitrust, Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulation, public law and policy and Supreme Court and appellate practices.
