Post-Grant Practice

Within the past 12 months, Fish & Richardson's post-grant practice has filed 200 reexamination matters on behalf of our clients – accounting for approximately 20-25% of all reexaminations filed in the United States.

Companies of all sizes continue to turn to Fish for these important proceedings because of the close integration of our #1 ranked patent and our #1 ranked litigation practices and because challenges to the validity of USPTO decisions utilize the combination of prosecution and litigation skills. Our internal commitment to knowledge sharing allows us to capture the lessons we learn in the courtroom and build them into our reexamination approach.
