About

Provided by Bartkowski PLLC

Bartkowski PLLC focuses its practice on intellectual property and international trade law. The firm’s primary practice area—IP litigation at the United States International Trade Commission under 19 U.S.C. § 1337 (Section 337 litigation)—marries those two fields. Litigation at the ITC typically involves assertion of patents against parties that import or sell allegedly infringing goods. In today’s global economy, many potential IP disputes fit this general pattern. Bartkowski PLLC brings decades of experience to clients in assisting on ITC cases, for both patentees and importers.

Bartkowski PLLC has the ability to serve as the primary counsel to a client that is either a complainant or respondent in Section 337 litigation, and the firm also frequently assists law firms and clients that hire Bartkowski PLLC to add experience to a broader team in Section 337 litigation. When doing so, Bartkowski PLLC works to seamlessly ensure that the client receives top-flight service while retaining its preferred IP litigation counsel. When serving as co-counsel, it is typical that Bartkowski PLLC take primary responsibility for ITC-specific issues, such as domestic industry, the public-interest factors, and the ITC's unique remedies.
