Protecting your ingenuity is essential to your continued competitive advantage.

 

We represent companies on both sides of the “v” and in bet-the-company litigation

Patents are potent business tools that allow innovators to establish exclusivity over products and processes, whether through licensing or litigation. The assertion of patents against a company can pose a serious risk. We are regularly called on to assert and defend patent assertions that can significantly impact our client’s businesses. We regularly take on the tough cases, with very effective results for our clients.

 

Experience in courts across the nation

We try cases across the country, including cases at the International Trade Commission (ITC) and the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB). We litigate from coast-to-coast including federal courts in California, New York, Florida, Delaware, Nevada, Colorado, Illinois, and Texas. Notably, the majority of our team is strategically located within two hours of Texas patent litigation hot-spots – Waco, Marshall, and Sherman.

Our team has deep experience in trying cases to verdict. We don’t just talk about patent litigation, we do it. Patent litigation accounts for 80% of our IP cases. Being both nimble and battle-tested, we represent both patent owners and defendants, as well as all types of clients, in significant patent litigation matters in the nation’s toughest litigation venues. With experience representing some of the largest companies in the world to individual inventors, we are invested in finding the winning strategy for your case.

We get technical to understand our clients’ needs and innovations. Hands-on practical industry experience is one of our key differentiators. More than two-thirds of our patent litigation attorneys have direct experience with industries that include semiconductors, video codec, SEP technologies, device management, power management technologies, IoT devices, oil and gas, pharma, and many others. Many of us pursued degrees and careers in such industries before beginning our law careers. Now, we leverage that experience for clients in some of their most challenging patent litigation matters.

 

We know our opponents’ playbooks and strategies before the case begins

Because we regularly appear on behalf of patent owners as well as companies accused of infringement, we understand and can anticipate our opponents’ playbook early on in the case. This enables us to craft strategies to efficiently navigate toward our clients’ end goal, whether that be a settlement, broader business resolution, or victory in court. Our balanced experience gives our clients an edge.
