We are your high tech legal experts.  Our clients range from recognized industry leaders to consumer electronics companies to innovative start-ups.  Our attorneys are valued for hitting the ground running with a full understanding of the technological and business issues at stake.  With more than 100 intellectual property professionals, we offer a deep well of technological understanding and practical business sense.  Our attorneys work together to handle all projects, no matter how daunting, to deliver comprehensive legal solutions pertaining to patent prosecution, litigation, interferences, due diligence, licensing, copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets, to name only a few.  Our team includes registered patent attorneys and patent agents, all with diverse technical backgrounds and advanced degrees in electrical engineering, computer science, industrial engineering and physics, to help you manage your technological patent portfolio.

Our lawyers regularly practice before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, devoting a significant amount of time to procuring patents on behalf our clients in Ex Parte and Inter Partes Review proceedings.  We are also called upon to conduct IP audits, and show our clients how to create and carry out domestic and international IP protection strategies.  We further help our clients design around and navigate the mine fields of existing patent portfolios and operate freely in the marketplace.  We are committed to aggressive protection of our clients’ intellectual property, and have extensive litigation experience in federal and state courts and before government agencies and international dispute resolution forums.  Our litigators have a full range of IP understanding, as many both prosecute and defend IP claims.
