Intellectual Property Litigation

Cost-Sensitive and Strategic Representation in Intellectual Property Litigation

Intellectual property litigation often involves a number of related issues. A single lawsuit can include patent, trademark, copyright, unfair competition, trade secrets theft, and licensing matters.

It is also common to find business disputes that initially appeared to have no intellectual property component require litigation to resolve patent, trademark, or copyright matters before a resolution of the disputes can be achieved.
