News of AIA trials in the Patent Office strikes fear in the hearts of patent owners based on the statistics that most instituted proceedings result in the challenged claims of the patent being canceled. But, patent owners can take steps to avoid that fate. Those steps begin during the early stages of developing an application preparation and filing strategy, through prosecution, and after issuance when preparing to defend the patent in a trial. Further, there are now enough AIA trial dispositions that offer patent owners a roadmap to better success. This session will review steps current and prospective patent owners may take to better ensure success in keeping their patents alive.

The IP Defense Summit: Chicago covered many aspects of IP defense, including best and latest defense strategies, preparing for trial, considerations when settling, managing internal resources and expectations, and AIA post-issuance proceedings. For more information, click here.
