At The Forefront Of Patent Licensing And Litigation
As former members of leading boutique and Big Law firms, the lawyers of PV Law have provided patent-based counseling to a wide-ranging client base for decades. We have guided technology and industry leaders through fundamental changes in IP law, including the creation of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit; the arrival of nonpracticing entity (NPE) litigation; the rise of §337 proceedings at the International Trade Commission (ITC); and the adoption of the America Invents Act (AIA) and the post-issuance proceedings ushered in by that law — e.g., inter partes review (IPR) at the Patent Trademark and Appeals Board (PTAB).
Industry Knowledge And Cultural Awareness
A hallmark of PV Law is that our lawyers’ insights transcend their extensive legal and technical skills. We strive to understand the unique challenges our clients face, so we immerse ourselves in the market sectors and cultures of our clients. Our attorneys have spent extended periods of time living and working in countries such as China, Korea and Japan, forming strong relationships with the legal, business and science communities and gaining a deep understanding of our clients’ goals and mindsets.
Our team members are attuned to how culture affects communication and business practices, in addition to the nuances of how different cultures interrelate. This understanding enhances our capacity to effectively assist our foreign clients within the United States, whether before federal district courts, the ITC, or the PTAB.
Unmatched Depth Of Experience In Asia
Robert Gaybrick, a co-founder of PV Law, led prior firms in establishing their first offices in Japan and China, and he spent decades living and working in those countries.
Through many years of representing domestic and Asian clients on hundreds of IP disputes and transactions, Robert and fellow co-founder Bradford (Brad) Cangro understand how to provide effective IP representation and achieve successful results for their clients’ businesses. Several of our attorneys are fluent in Chinese and Korean.
