The Intellectual Property and Technology Group at Skadden offers clients a full range of legal services relating to the acquisition, enforcement and commercialization of intellectual property and technology assets. These services include counseling and handling transactions on engagements involving patents, copyrights, trademarks, outsourcing, privacy and data security.

Attorneys in our group also litigate these issues in federal and state courts. Skadden litigators protect clients’ key products and brands both by defending against infringement allegations and enforcing intellectual property rights, including in obtaining multimillion- dollar jury verdicts against competitors. Our trial experience allows us to anticipate and strategically manage every phase of a case, often giving us an edge in terms of resolving our clients’ matters without entering the courtroom. When cases do advance to trial, our clients benefit from the experience of our nationally recognized litigators, who have decades of success in federal and state courts and the ITC.

Skadden was ranked among the leading firms in Information Technology by U.S. News — Best Lawyers “Best Law Firms” 2017.
