Have you or your client been sued for patent, copyright or trademark infringement? We can help.

Intellectual property litigation is on the rise and so is the cost of dealing with it. The average cost of defending an infringement suit is well over $200K and often it is not covered by liability insurance. What should you do?

Find a good litigation attorney

Finding a good litigation attorney is critical to the success or failure of your case. There are many large firms that “specialize” in intellectual property litigation. However, these firms won’t always assign you a good litigator or even someone with whom you are comfortable. And, large specialty firms charge very high fees.

Your choice of a litigation attorney doesn’t have to be one who specializes in intellectual property law. However, it is important to hire a litigation attorney with a good track record who partners with a solid intellectual property attorney to help ensure a successful outcome.
