Lisa Nguyen

Lisa Nguyen is a partner in the Intellectual Property practice at Paul Hastings and is based in the firm’s Palo Alto office. She represents cutting-edge technology companies in intellectual property matters, particularly in litigation against non-practicing entities. Lisa is adept at resolving disputes efficiently and identifying pragmatic solutions for her clients. Her practical and deliberate approach to prepare cases for trial regularly disposes of claims early in the process.

Lisa has a proven track record obtaining successful trial verdicts, summary judgment rulings and dismissals at the pleading stage. She has also obtained multiple walk aways for defendants (obtaining dismissals with no payment to plaintiffs), as well as attorneys’ fees. Lisa represents both plaintiffs and defendants in complex multijurisdictional, multipatent cases, and has substantial experience handling cases pending before District Courts across the country, the International Trade Commission (ITC) and the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB).

Lisa regularly speaks and writes on patent counseling and IP issues. Her speaking engagements include presentations at the Advanced Patent Law Institute, Licensing Executives Society, Berkeley Center for Law and Technology, the National Conference of Vietnamese American Attorneys and the National Asian Pacific American Bar Association.

Lisa has an active pro bono practice and has represented victims of political persecution and domestic violence in applying for asylum and U Visas and obtaining restraining orders, and worked with the Asian Pacific Islander Legal Outreach to aid victims of trafficking.
