I believe that understanding my clients’ businesses and strategic goals is essential to achieving favorable outcomes and delivering true value. Every client’s approach to intellectual property is unique, shaped by their industry, market position, competitive landscape, and long-term vision. By developing a deep understanding of these factors, I can tailor my litigation strategy to align with their broader business objectives.
This client-centric approach allows me to anticipate potential risks and opportunities, craft arguments that resonate with judges and juries, and make informed decisions that support the client’s overall strategic direction. By integrating litigation strategy with the client’s business objectives, I strive to not only resolve disputes effectively but also to enhance their competitive edge, drive innovation, and maximize the value of their intellectual property assets over the long term.
I have represented a broad range of clients in patent litigation across the country in all phases of litigation and my trial experience includes both bench and jury trials. My experience spans a wide range of technologies, including life sciences, medical devices, software, telecommunications, oilfield equipment, and automotive equipment. I have also practiced before the International Trade Commission (ITC), Patent Trial and Appeals Board (PTAB), and worked on a number of Federal Circuit appeals.
