Our attorneys are at the forefront of the shifting landscape. We work closely with clients to remove obstacles, help them stay ahead of changing patent laws and judicial decisions, and provide solutions for navigating around competitors’ patents, extracting value from their intellectual property, and for protecting their assets.

We understand the changing post-issuance AIA procedures and help clients leverage those procedures as part of an overall strategy to neutralize competitors.
