Attorneys Steven Lieberman and Sharon Davis presented on the topic of Responding to Malicious Lawsuits and Unintended Implications on the Industry in a panel discussion at the fourth annual MIP U.S. Patent Forum, which returned to Washington, D.C., on March 18, 2015.
Following a year of heated debate about patent reform, trolls, antitrust considerations in Hatch-Waxman litigation and the Supreme Court killing software patents, IP managers across different sectors are facing an unprecedented level of uncertainty. Focusing on litigation, licensing, patent protection, and IP commercialisation, as well as on the most important global developments, the MIP US Patent Forum 2015 took a close look at these and other issues affecting the industry.
