Synoptic IP is well-equipped to support both the plaintiff and the defendant in a patent litigation.

The Process of Preparing for Litigation

For the plaintiff

A patent holder possesses ownership rights over patented claims. It establishes the grounds for infringement when a corporation violates it. As a result, a patent owner may file a lawsuit against another party in district court based on their commercial goals. The legal patent would necessitate strong infringement claims.

For the defendant

An alleged party in a patent dispute has a number of legal options to defend themselves. It is advised against giving in to intimidation by the letter warning of infringement and requesting damages, a licence, or an injunction.

The Plaintiff Must Make Sure of the Following Before Filing a Lawsuit

  • Evidence-of-use (EoU) chart suited for litigation with appropriate claim construction
  • Enhancing a claim chart that has already been established
  • Patent validity analysis
  • Claim preparation for the Markman hearing
  • Preliminary infringement contention (PIC) report formation

Options Available to the Defendant for Ending the Legal Dispute

  • Prepare your non-infringement defences by reviewing the claim chart
  • File an IPR to contest the asserted patent’s validity
  • Counter-assertion in the event that a plaintiff is an operating corporation
  • Obtain a patent if one is not already in your portfolio
  • Argue the Markman hearing’s claim construction
