Notable Representations:

• Patent Infringement Litigation: On behalf of a public pharmaceutical corporation, successfully enforced a patent against another major pharmaceutical corporation, which sought to market an infringing version of client’s long lasting expectorant formulation used to treat congestion. An aggressive discovery schedule led to a favorable settlement before trial, which included admissions by the defendants that the relevant patent was valid, enforceable and infringed; and
• Patent Infringement Litigation: In a case brought against India’s largest pharmaceutical company, successfully obtained summary judgment for a large pharmaceutical corporation, with the Court ruling that the client’s compound patent was not invalid for double patenting and enjoining the F.D.A. from approving the defendant’s application to market its competing product at least until the expiration of the patent.
