Patents provide a government approved and regulated monopoly for an invention. While the Patent Office issues Letters Patent with a shiny blue ribbon, it is up to you to enforce your patent rights. The other side of the equation is that another company might be claiming that your product and/or service infringes its patents and demanding that you stop making your product or delivering your service. Whether you have issues with a traditional mechanical invention, bio-type inventions, electrical systems or an Internet implemented business method, we can help solve your problems.

We have years of experience with jury trials, judge/bench trials, Markman hearings, arbitration, mediation and other forms of ADR, Federal Circuit appeals and Patent and Trademark Office Appeals. Our lawyers have handled disputes involving many types of inventions, including software, hardware, peripheral computer technologies and digital communications systems as well as simple mechanical devices, biotechnological and chemical cases, business method patents, and internet and e-commerce based systems.
