Intellectual Property

About

Provided by Mitby Pacholder Johnson PLLC.

Mitby Pacholder Johnson maintains a litigation-focused intellectual property practice representing corporate clients in complex disputes involving patents, trade secrets, copyrights and trademarks. The firm primarily advises established companies, with clients spanning the software, healthcare, automotive safety and energy sectors. Many matters involve technology-driven disputes tied to core business operations, including enforcement of patent and trade secret rights and defense of infringement claims. The practice has particular strength in intellectual property litigation in the energy and industrial technology sectors, where the firm represents companies developing specialized tools, production technologies and engineering solutions.

The team regularly handles patent infringement disputes and trade secret misappropriation matters arising from competitive product development and employee mobility. A defining feature of the group is its trial capability. Unlike many IP boutiques that focus primarily on patent prosecution or pre-trial litigation, the firm regularly takes cases through trial in federal courts and has achieved significant results, including a $105 million jury verdict involving trade secret and patent claims.

The team also handles disputes with cross-border elements and frequently works alongside foreign counsel when matters involve international companies, foreign-developed technology or multinational operations.
