U.S. Patent Litigation Training Program for Asian Corporations

A vital component of an elite intellectual property protection plan for your company is knowing how to effectively conduct patent litigation in the United States.

Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett & Dunner, LLP has created a highly interactive course that not only makes the subject entertaining, but also will increase your ability and confidence in communicating with and instructing your U.S. counsel. The program includes:

• Visiting the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia (the famous “Rocket Docket”), the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, and the U.S. International Trade Commission, providing a unique opportunity to meet privately with judges, hear their personal stories, and ask questions.
• Exchanging ideas and engaging delegates with in-depth discussions addressing the complexities and challenges that comprise today’s patent litigation landscape.

This intensive five-day program explains and demonstrates the inner workings of U.S. patent litigation. Numerous practical exercises allow participants to follow the progress of a hypothetical U.S. patent infringement case, starting with what happens before the lawsuit is filed all the way through the appellate process. Delegates will observe and participate in mock depositions, Markman and summary judgment hearings, settlement negotiations, trial, and appeal. Participants will actively assist in supervising the litigation teams.

The goal of this program is to train corporate counsel at all stages in their careers, as the in-house company representatives, how to effectively manage U.S. patent litigation counsel. The course also focuses on how to insightfully coordinate the company’s needs in balancing the requirements of a litigation.

With a mix of foundational training, big picture classes, and industry breakout sessions, as well as a host of formal and informal networking opportunities, Finnegan’s U.S. IP Litigation Training Program are specifically designed to meet the needs of in-house counsel at Asian corporations.

Attendance is limited to maximize your contact with course instructors and other delegates.
