Work Highlights

Patent Prosecution Highlights

Jennifer and her team manage patent portfolios for major corporations and technology leaders, including:

• One of the country’s biggest manufacturers of large equipment.

• One of the leading U.S. tax preparation companies.

• Multiple companies that do work for the federal government, including a contractor for non-nuclear components for the nation’s nuclear stockpile.

• One of the world’s largest sports gaming platforms.

IPR Highlights

• Went three-for-three at the PTAB on behalf of a global technology leader accused of patent infringement related to smart card technology. Jennifer and Erise petitioned for IPR on the three relevant patents and prevailed on all three.

• On behalf of the Patent Owner, a global media data and analytics provider, obtained a denial of institution for two IPRs.

Career

Jennifer Bailey leads Erise’s patent prosecution group, where she obtains business solutions for her clients that balance risk, budget, goals, and short and long-term benefits. Jennifer enjoys problem-solving for her clients and is energized by their success and making their business lives easier. Her 20-plus-year track record of achieving meaningful business results for clients is demonstrated by her long relationships with many of her clients.

Jennifer has significant experience and success obtaining outcomes for petitioners and patent owners in post-grant proceedings. She was lead counsel for Petitioner on the first-filed inter partes review (IPR) and was recently named one of the Top 25 Best Performing IPR Attorneys for Petitioners at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) by Patexia.

Jennifer believes in obtaining quality patents over quantity. Her business and technical knowledge combined with her patent prosecution and litigation experience allow her and Erise’s patent counseling team to prepare patents that withstand litigation, IPRs, and other post-grant challenges.

She regularly assists clients in complex pre-litigation IP matters, including negotiating joint development agreements, software development and licensing agreements, and patent license agreements.

Jennifer’s management philosophy is that the team is enhanced by diversity of thought, diversity of people, and diversity of work. As group leader, she strives to balance her team’s workload while keeping them challenged with interesting and varied projects and technologies. The team is trained to formulate solutions, think ahead, and be proactive to the client’s needs. The entire team understands that we are ultimately service providers to our clients, and we work to provide excellent service with efficiency, quality, and collaboration.

She has been named an “IP Star” by Managing IP since 2013 and selected to the IAM Strategy 300 Global Leaders for 2023-2024. She taught as an adjunct professor of patent law at the University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Law and as a mathematics instructor at the University of Missouri-Columbia. She held a number of leadership positions with the Association of Intellectual Property Firms, including president of the organization from 2012 to 2014.
