Litigation

Intellectual property litigation is a formal process governed by federal or state laws. Generally it starts with infringement and/or inappropriate use of intellectual property by others. The process includes bringing before the court disputes related to patents, trademarks, copyrights, and trade secrets. Successful outcomes can lead to award of damages, injunctions, and in some cases, recovery of attorney costs.

Litigation involves a series of steps from initial filing to potential trial and appeal. We advocate resolving disputes through out-of-court settlements including alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods. The ADR includes negotiation, mediation, and arbitration.

Our practice boasts extensive experience in handling a wide range of intellectual property litigation matters. Please contact us if you need assistance in litigating and/or for finding alternative dispute resolution for your intellectual property matters.
