About

Provided by Brown Wegner LLP

Patent Litigation

Our patent litigation practice is focused on understanding our clients’ litigation objectives and assisting them in developing the most efficient path to those objectives. We represent inventors and businesses across a broad range of industries. We frequently defend overseas manufacturers in federal and state courts.

Copyright and Trademark Litigation

Our firm has tried to verdict several trademark and copyright actions. We also advise on litigation avoidance strategies, licensing issues, fair use, DMCA, and intellectual property rights on the Internet.

Trade Secret Litigation

Our attorneys have extensive experience assisting clients in protecting intellectual property and proprietary rights, as well as defending against trade secrets actions. Our employment law practice positions us to analyze the risk of counterclaims and cross claims relating to noncompete agreements, employee mobility, and wrongful termination.

Antitrust, Unfair Competition and False Advertising

Our attorneys have extensive experience prosecuting and defending unfair competition and antitrust cases in state and federal courts. We also assist clients in navigating the host of state and federal laws that impact their trade channels and advertising practices. For instance, our firm was lead counsel for an oil refinery in a $72 Billion anti-trust class action lawsuit, achieving early dismissal in a convoluted case that plagued other refiners for nearly a decade.
