We’re Devoted to Intellectual Property Law
For more than 50 years, Marshall, Gerstein & Borun has maintained an exclusive focus on the practice of intellectual property law. Our experience includes patent and trademark prosecution, copyrights, trade secrets, transactions, licensing, litigation and technology transfer. Our attorneys have been at the forefront of legal issues involving emerging technologies, biotechnology, nanotechnology, computer sciences, and engineering.
Our professional team of attorneys, patent agents and technical specialists hold advanced degrees and have backgrounds in specialized fields such as computer science and software, engineering, optics, medicine, biochemistry, microbiology, molecular biology, genetics, and chemistry. A significant number of our lawyers also have industry experience, and many have served as in-house general counsel or as patent counsel, directors of technology transfer departments, and consultants in a variety of engineering fields and academic research. That experience of having been a client gives our team a deeper level of understanding not only of the internal considerations behind intellectual property decisions, but also of the financial concerns our clients face.
Our intellectual property litigation team is equally accomplished, composed of seasoned trial litigators who understand the technologies involved. We have handled some of the most visible, high-stakes intellectual property cases on record and have argued before district and appellate courts, and the U.S. Supreme Court.
Our focus, experience and resources mean that Marshall, Gerstein & Borun is uniquely qualified to counsel clients on the complete spectrum of intellectual property issues. As a result, our firm is privileged to provide intellectual property representation to FORTUNE 250 corporations, universities, research foundations and international companies.
