OUR ATTORNEYS
The firm represents Match Group, LLC, owner of numerous online dating brands including the iconic Tinder application, in a highly publicized intellectual property and business dispute with competitor Bumble Trading, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas.
The firm represents VirnetX Inc. in the company’s long-running patent litigation against Apple Inc., which has included four successful jury trials and four nine-figure verdicts in favor of VirnetX. A $439.7 million judgment in September 2017 was affirmed by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, and a separate August 2018 judgment awarded VirnetX an additional $502.6 million in damages.
The firm represented Washington University in St. Louis professor Dr. Robert Morley in his suit against Square, Jack Dorsey, and Jim McKelvey seeking to restore Dr. Morley’s co-ownership of Square Inc. The parties reached a mutually agreeable settlement in 2016.
The firm represented Acantha LLC in a patent infringement lawsuit against Johnson & Johnson subsidiary DePuy Synthes. Jurors in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin awarded a unanimous $8.2 million verdict in favor of Acantha based on DePuy Synthes’s infringement of an Acantha patent covering an orthopedic implant assembly used in surgical procedures.
Patent infringement and business disputes have become increasingly contentious over the past decade. But even with this increased contentiousness, most firms continue to follow a formulaic approach to every case. At Caldwell Cassady & Curry, we critically examine these formulaic approaches, identify vulnerabilities, and outflank our adversaries.
