U.S. Patent Office Trials

McGlew & Tuttle is a law firm with extensive experience in USPTO post-grant proceedings, including patent interferences and ex parte and inter-partes reexamination. They have a team of specialists who have successfully advocated clients’ interests across various technologies in the USPTO, district courts, and the Federal Circuit. With the America Invents Act, new inter partes proceedings will be added to the U.S. system of post-grant patent review, which will be adversarial and often require testimony, cross-examination of witnesses and experts, and a complex motions and discovery practice.

Inter partes review and post-grant review will provide a less costly and parallel administrative path for challenging patent validity, which can effectively delay or avoid litigation, resolve or settle the dispute, and eliminate liability for past damages. McGlew & Tuttle’s USPTO Patent Trials litigators are qualified to counsel clients on the strategic uses of the new USPTO proceedings, including consideration of settlement and arbitration of disputes, based on decades of inter-partes experience. They can also provide guidance on ex parte reexamination and supplemental examination for patent owners to strengthen their patents against prior art and counter charges of inequitable conduct.

McGlew & Tuttle is experienced in trial and appellate litigation in federal courts, including the U.S. District Courts, U.S. International Trade Commission, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, and the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office Administrative Courts. They have a diverse client base and manage litigation for clients internationally to protect their intellectual property rights. McGlew & Tuttle’s attorneys are experienced in patent and trademark proceedings and can create winning strategies for even the most complex cases. They are committed to focusing on their clients’ business objectives and pursuing alternative dispute resolution when necessary.
