The U.S. Supreme Court’s groundbreaking TC Heartland decision changed the game for where you can file patent litigation.

To succeed in this new environment, litigants need to understand the nuances of Delaware courts, from the judges to the rules and procedures. Pepper has a seasoned national patent litigation team who work closely with our attorneys in our Wilmington office on a number of cases.
Pepper Hamilton hosted a webinar on the hot-button issues facing companies involved in patent infringement litigation. Drawing on our experience with Delaware judges and courts, we discussed the following:
