With decades of IP experience, we aggressively, creatively, and efficiently represent and advise clients of every type and size, from some of the largest and best-known companies in the world to start-ups. We've earned our reputation in every facet of IP, and we're at home in nearly every court, industry, and technology. 

Our firm is unique. Our co-founding partners were former leaders of the IP litigation practice of one of the largest IP boutiques in the nation. Nearly all of our lawyers have engineering or science degrees. Three clerked for federal judges. Three are registered patent lawyers. One managed an extensive trademark portfolio for one of the largest companies in the world. All were experienced IP litigators before joining our firm. And our lawyers are supported by a staff that is also unique among law firms. All staff members have bachelor's degrees from elite universities.

Patent, Trademark, Trade Secret, and Copyright Litigation

In court, we’ve delivered for our clients in every type of IP case: utility patent, design patent, trademark, trade secret, and copyright. We've designed and executed our clients' brand protection and patent enforcement campaigns, and we've defeated cases brought by competitors and non-practicing entities.

Our lawyers have represented both plaintiffs and defendants in more than 400 IP cases in federal and state trial and appellate courts across the country, as well as IPRs before the PTAB, oppositions and cancellations before the TTAB, and mediations and arbitrations. We have also managed our clients’ litigation overseas.

Trademark Filing, Prosecution, Search, and Clearance

We file, prosecute, and manage trademarks for businesses of all sizes. We've represented some of the largest and most aggressive trademark owners in the world, as well as small businesses and start-ups. Our expertise includes all aspects of brand protection, from counseling to trademark filing and prosecution (U.S. and international), oppositions and cancellations before the TTAB, searching and clearance, enforcement, defense against trademark assertions, and domain name disputes before the World Intellectual Property Organization.

IP Counseling, Transactions, and Agreements

We advise our clients on all IP issues, from developing strategies for protecting our clients' intellectual property to strategies for avoiding the IP of competitors. We advise our clients on intellectual property transactions and due diligence, and we negotiate and prepare our clients' agreements relating to intellectual property, including licenses, assignments, and non-disclosure agreements.
