The Intellectual Property Group litigates matters concerning patent rights, know-how, trade secrets, trademarks and copyrights on behalf of both rights holders and accused infringers. Our firm provides effective representation for rights holders in judicial proceedings against infringers under patent, trademark, copyright, anti-counterfeiting, anti-dilution and unfair competition laws. Our aggressive policing efforts frequently result in favorable agreements without the need for litigation. Our firm also defends the rights of our clients against intellectual property attacks on their legitimate business activities.

The strength of our practice lies in our extensive courtroom experience coupled with the strong science and technology backgrounds of our lawyers that enable us to make and present compelling arguments and evidence that can be easily understood by lay judges and juries. Many of the firm's IP litigators are registered before the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).
