The discovery process in patent litigation shares many similarities with other intellectual property cases in federal court, but there are specific nuances which are unique to patent cases. Join attorneys Amy B. Goldsmith and Alan Tenenbaum as they delve into the anatomy of discovery in enforcement and defense of claims involving design and utility patents, from both the patent owner’s and alleged infringer’s perspectives.
In this pertinent program, they will discuss discovery in the context of Markman hearings, contention interrogatories, fact and expert discovery, and motion practice.
Successful, profitable businesses share certain characteristics: immediately recognizable brands, desirable products or services, and a strategic plan which minimizes legal risks. As co-chair of the Intellectual Property Group at Tarter Krinsky & Drogin, Amy B. Goldsmith partners with clients to provide practical legal advice and connections to grow their businesses. A strategic advisor, she guides clients in all stages of their development from idea conception and protection, to funding, manufacturing and enforcement. Copyrights and patents are an important part of a company’s strategy, and understanding when protection is likely (or not) to be granted is critical in the design process.
Alan Tenenbaum concentrates on intellectual property litigation and counseling. He represents clients throughout the United States and before the International Trade Commission in patent, trademark, unfair competition and commercial litigation matters. He has experience with a wide array of technologies, including pharmaceuticals, chemicals, medical devices, hardware and software, e-commerce and business methods, and consumer products.
Applying business solutions from a legal perspective, Alan works with clients to identify, protect, manage and monetize core technology, brands and other proprietary rights. In addition to negotiating agreements and complex intellectual property transactions, Alan also effectively provides counsel to clients who seek to avoid disputes and resolve them without recourse to litigation.
Chock full of useful information.
This was listed as "advanced" but was just a basic survey of patent litigation. Waste of time for any experienced patent attorney.
This course informed me much more than just discovery. Excellent!

Pace was very good-might want to consider making this a 2 hour course; the subject matter would certainly support it.
