So, You've Received a Patent Infringement Demand Letter. Now What?

Join ACC Northeast and Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett & Dunner, LLP for a virtual panel discussion on navigating your next steps after receiving a patent infringement demand letter. Patent infringement demand letters often originate from so-called "patent trolls" on fishing expeditions looking for a quick settlement, or these demand letters can be much more serious.

Finnegan attorneys, Cory Bell and Linda Thayer, along with our in-house panelist, Benjamin Brown, Chief IP Counsel and Assistant General Counsel of Onto Innovation will discuss next steps and considerations after receiving a demand letter and the importance of these considerations and subsequent actions for in-house counsel at both private and public companies.

Topics to be discussed include:

• How to assess the risk;
• Should you get a non-infringement opinion from patent counsel?
• Should it be written or oral?
• Is an inter partes review (IPR) at the Patent Trial & Appeal Board (PTAB) appropriate?
• Do you have sufficient facts for a Declaratory Judgement action?
