Since our inception, we have litigated on behalf of clients as well as helped clients avoid litigation. We offer skilled and experienced practitioners focused on litigation, licensing negotiations and transactional work for our intellectual property clients.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

We believe that litigation should serve the business interests of the client. Our focus is on solving the business problem. We strive never to waste a client\u2019s time, energy or money. We know \u201cwhen to say when,\u201d and when to go to the ends of the earth. We don\u2019t back down from a trial\u2014and we never want a client to be perceived as \u201cbuying off\u201d infringers. We balance our courtroom fierceness with a pragmatic analysis of the likely outcome.<\/span><\/p>

We believe that litigation is a business tool that should support the strategic management of a client\u2019s portfolio and should be used only when goals are discernible, articulated and achievable. Where litigation is the prudent course, we are skilled advocates for our clients.<\/span><\/p>

Our litigators are often involved in the drafting of patent claims and early development of a client\u2019s portfolio\u2014a forward-thinking approach aimed at ensuring the defensibility of claim terminology. Our success in the courtroom is quite clearly tied to our litigation team\u2019s early analysis of the strengths, weaknesses and opportunities in an invention disclosure, patent application and\/or intellectual property portfolio.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

We are adept at setting realistic case budgets and skilled in early case assessment. In intellectual property arenas, early case assessment is often called strategic portfolio management or patent mapping and calibration with market forces. The key is the education and collaboration among all third parties and third-party information sources.<\/span><\/p>

Our early case assessment practices are modeled after the DuPont Legal Model for litigation. We conduct case assessments early and often. Our case assessment model uses standardized processes and procedures leveraged against factual and legal input. Early case assessment can create wealth by avoiding pointless adverse entanglements.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
