Tough Fighters

“Because of our long experience working with life science companies, we know the business. We align the client’s goals to the strategy and then execute against it. Because we know the business, we ensure we know what matters to the client. We assure that the needs of the client and needs of the firm are aligned and do not diverge.”

“In these patent cases, we usually go in with a small team. We often see 10, 15, even 20 lawyers on the other side. We question the value and cost of so many attorneys in a case. We exploit that because we know miscommunication and confusion occurs. We know our stuff. I say the more the merrier. Bring it on.”

“We all worked at large global law firms and learned what works and what doesn’t. We apply strategy at every level to ensure that all work done for the client is valuable and moves the project forward.”

“There is a misunderstanding that lawyers with technical degrees are not good in litigation because they want to deal with technology, not necessarily arguments and opposing counsel. At our firm, this is definitely not the case. Our attorneys are all born trial lawyers, aggressive and tenacious. They are also intellectually curious, and want to learn about technology. For patent cases including Hatch-Waxman cases, understanding both the law and the technology can really make the litigation process efficient. We estimate that we reduce costs significantly during expert discovery.”

“Because we limit our practice to what we know and do well, clients trust us. We are not strong in one area but weak in another. We are strong in all our areas. This solidifies the trust factor.”

“The perspective adopted by patent lawyers itself becomes a challenge. We are lawyers first and foremost. We are not scientists who have law degrees. Our perspective means that we treat I.P. and client problems for what they are: legal problems that involve science. This means that we focus on solutions that make sense, even if the solution is not mainly about the science. We care about winning for the client.”
