Technology Litigation

Our Technology Litigation team handles disputes over the design, performance and implementation of cutting-edge technology. These disputes hinge on the performance of computer hardware and software, online transactions, traditional proprietary rights (including domain names and trademarks) and emerging rights in data.

Our lawyers take the time to understand our client’s business and the technologies behind their products, services and inventions – enabling us to craft a creative strategy to successfully and efficiently resolve each dispute in a way that meets the client’s business needs.

Not every claim or dispute should be litigated. We first bring our talents as problem solvers to the table, quickly evaluating the legal questions and giving our clients the information they need to decide whether to settle, litigate or seek mediation or arbitration.

Once our client decides to litigate, we treat each case aggressively and comprehensively and by the most economical means available.

We routinely prosecute and defend sophisticated, cutting-edge disputes involving patent and copyright infringement, antitrust, fraud, regulatory, and contract issues. Because we represent both plaintiffs and defendants, we can see both sides of the issue, often allowing us to find creative litigation strategies. Our litigators work closely with our intellectual property, antitrust, and cyber security and privacy teams, to craft a sophisticated strategy that presents complex technology in a simplified manner.

Our clients include leaders in the Internet, computer hardware and software, digital media, entertainment, semiconductor and biotechnology industries.

We also provide the full range of transactional and compliance services to technology companies through our Technology & Innovation team, including companies that create, market and use artificial intelligence, blockchain, cryptocurrency and other emerging technologies.
