Patent Litigation
Connolly Bove has one of the oldest and most preeminent patent litigation practices in the United States. At both trial and on appeal, the firm has frequently handled notable cases of first impression and it continues to set new standards in patent law. Our attorneys have protected some of the most economically and technologically important inventions of our time.
We offer litigators with a broad base of technical backgrounds and Patent Office experience. We combine this experience with battle tested first chair litigation expertise. We handle both complex cases and cases involving smaller entities, staffing each case in a manner most suited to our client’s needs. Our attorneys also coordinate international patent enforcement strategies and litigations, working closely with foreign attorneys.
Courtroom Technologies
We use all available litigation technologies – litigation docket and support databases, document imaging, OCR technology, trial presentation software and video animations. We employ mock trials and jury focus groups when appropriate and cost-justified.
Teamwork Approach
Our teamwork approach keeps discovery focused and cost-effective. We supplement our litigation efforts with arbitration, mediation and other forms of alternative dispute resolution that have become effective approaches to resolve patent disputes. Our attorneys have extensive experience in both domestic and international arbitrations. We have a large staff of experienced litigation paralegals who work closely with our attorneys to manage and control document review and production, case scheduling, exhibit preparation, trial organization and other important functions.
