Intellectual Property/
Business Litigation
Achieving successful resolutions of your intellectual property and related business disputes
As former research scientists and industry professionals, we have a firsthand knowledge of the technical, financial, operational and creative disputes that arise between inventors, employees, businesses, and/or academic institutions. When our clients' business objectives dictate, we assist them in achieving successful resolutions of their intellectual property and related business disputes in national and international jurisdictions.
Each dispute resolution strategy we develop is synchronized to our client's specific business purpose. When formulating strategies, we consider the full spectrum of dispute resolution techniques, including litigation, arbitration, mediation, and settlement, when appropriate.
Our litigation attorneys are experienced and aggressive, and have successfully resolved numerous disputes before multiple state and Federal courts across the country and before both the USPTO Board of Patent Appeals and Interferences and the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board.
