tech–forward, client–centered

Cutting-edge IP litigation and counseling for today’s most innovative companies.

Who We Are

We are a close-knit team of elite, former Big Law litigators specializing in complex cases involving patents, trade secrets, copyrights, trademarks, false advertising, and contracts.  Almost every member of our team holds a technical degree, including numerous advanced degrees and multiple doctorates.  We litigate a broad range of technologies, such as computer hardware and software, wireless standards, artificial intelligence, medical devices, and chemical products.  Whether representing a startup or a multinational corporation, our goal is the same: to deliver the best possible result at a fraction of the cost of Big Law.

What Makes Us Different

We are fundamentally different from traditional law firms.  We staff our cases exclusively with attorneys that graduated from the nation’s top law schools and practiced for at least a decade at elite Big Law firms.  This means every member of our case teams has both full command of the facts and the experience to marshal them strategically, so we see opportunities and angles that others miss.  And all our attorneys are billed at a fraction of their former Big Law rates, providing a cost-effective path to superior results.

Where We Practice

We have offices in New York and San Francisco, and our attorneys are admitted to practice in jurisdictions across the country, including before the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office.  We have an extensive track record of success litigating from coast-to-coast, including in the Eastern and Western Districts of Texas, the District of Delaware, the Northern District of California, the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York, the Eastern District of Virginia, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, and the International Trade Commission.
