Litigation

Successful IP litigation must be aggressive yet controlled, authoritative yet persuasive. It is high-stakes work where both preparation and execution must be flawless. Brinks has earned a national reputation as litigators with a long history of winning jury verdicts, leveraging a thorough knowledge of technology, mastering the nuances of the law and effectively communicating with clients. We represent clients at all levels of the judicial system, as well as guide them through alternative means to resolve important disputes.

Our firm has more than 100 experienced litigators, many of whom hold undergraduate and advanced technical and scientific degrees. Our understanding of science and technology is a powerful advantage in preparing evidence, examining experts and communicating complex ideas to a judge or jury. With this depth of resources, Brinks can offer the best combination of legal and technical experience for every size and type of intellectual property case.

Our litigators have helped shape the intellectual property laws by being a part of major decisions in the U.S. Supreme Court and the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals.
