Enforcing and Defending Your Intellectual Property Rights

Advocacy when your innovation is at stake

Patents and other intellectual property only deliver value when they can be enforced, and when you can defend against claims brought against you. Brodkin Law represents technology companies on both sides of intellectual property disputes, from asserting patents against infringers to defending clients accused of infringement. Our litigators pair courtroom experience with deep technical fluency, so complex inventions are presented clearly and persuasively to judges and juries.

We approach every dispute with your business objectives in mind. Sometimes the right outcome is a favorable license or settlement, and sometimes it is a decisive win at trial. Whatever the path, we build our strategy around what protects your market position and your bottom line.

Handling the full range of IP disputes

Intellectual property conflicts take many forms, and each demands a distinct approach. Our attorneys have handled matters spanning software, hardware, and emerging technologies, and we know how to develop the evidence, expert testimony, and claim construction arguments that these cases turn on.

We regularly handle disputes involving:

• Patent infringement enforcement and defense
• Trade secret misappropriation claims
• Trademark and unfair competition disputes
• Licensing and technology contract conflicts
• Post-grant proceedings and inter partes review before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board
• Cease-and-desist responses and pre-litigation negotiation

Strategic, efficient resolution

Litigation is demanding, and a drawn-out dispute can distract a company from its core mission. We work to resolve matters as efficiently as the facts allow, pursuing early settlement or dispositive motions where they serve your interests. When a case must be tried, our team prepares meticulously, retaining respected technical experts and developing infringement and validity positions that stand up to scrutiny. Throughout, we keep you informed of the risks, costs, and likely outcomes so you can make confident decisions.
