IPH2's litigators have substantial experience in trying all types of disputes involving intellectual property and technology rights. Our litigation and dispute practice includes trials, appeals and alternative dispute resolution proceedings, as well as matters before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Our litigators also have extensive experience in obtaining and defending against the issuance of temporary restraining orders and preliminary injunctions, a specialized practice that frequently arises in intellectual property disputes.

While we are prepared to litigate any dispute, our first priority is our clients' short and long-term business objectives. When a dispute arises, we move quickly to analyze the merits of the dispute, the alternative mechanisms and scenarios for resolving the dispute, as well as the costs associated with each scenario. Our clients benefit from this early analysis and can better determine whether it is in their best interest to litigate the dispute or settle the dispute in a manner that better satisfies the client's business objectives.

In addition to litigation, our litigation attorneys (and other members of IPH2) work with our clients to develop long-term strategies for exploiting and protecting their intellectual property and technology assets. These strategies may include: audits to identify, inventory and protect IP assets; campaigns to license IP assets; campaigns to acquire IP assets from third-parties; and enforcement strategies, which often include litigation on some level.
