Practice Areas
Focused & Proven
Enforcing a patent well is as much about venue as it is about argument, and Kramer LLP’s practice areas reflect that reality. We represent inventors, universities, and patent owners in the two forums where infringement cases are most often decided: U.S. District Courts, and the U.S. International Trade Commission. Whether the right path is one forum, the other, or both in parallel, our team brings the technical depth and litigation experience to pursue it with conviction.
Patent Litigation: Electronics, Circuitry & Computer Science
When inventors, universities, and patent owners need to enforce their rights against the world’s largest technology companies, they need a team that can match their adversaries move for move — and outthink them at every turn. That is what we deliver.
Our Electronics and Computer Science District Court Litigation Practice brings unmatched experience to the representation of inventors, elite universities, and patent-holding companies asserting their inventions against infringers. We have litigated the full spectrum of complex software and hardware disputes, and we built this practice with a singular focus: giving patent owners the firepower to stand toe-to-toe with the largest technology companies in the world. We regularly face the biggest law firms and corporations across the table — and we win.
Our advantage begins with our people. Our attorneys and technical advisors hold advanced degrees in Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Computer Science, Computational Informatics, Physics, and related disciplines. Many practiced as engineers before practicing law, and most are admitted before the United States Patent and Trademark Office as well as the U.S. District Courts. This depth of technical fluency spans every discipline that shapes modern technology, and it translates into a substantial strategic advantage for our clients inside the courtroom and out.
If you are an inventor or patent owner seeking to protect what you have built, let your fight become ours. Discover what the power of Kramer LLP can do for you.
U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC)
For patent owners facing infringement tied to imported goods, the U.S. International Trade Commission offers something district courts cannot: speed, leverage, and the power to stop infringing products at the border. The question is whether your counsel knows how to wield it.
Our ITC practice is built around Section 337 investigations, and that specialization is our clients’ advantage. We understand these proceedings from the inside — from the drafting of a complaint designed to survive institution, through the compressed discovery timelines, Markman, the evidentiary hearing before an Administrative Law Judge, and the Commission review that follows. Every stage demands a different discipline, and our team brings all of them to bear in service of a single objective: securing the relief that protects what our clients have invented.
That focus has produced results. We have secured exclusion orders, cease and desist orders, and favorable resolutions for patent owners whose technologies were under threat from infringing imports.
