In addition, our team helps ensure your innovations and products are protected and profitable using global risk mitigation strategies in intellectual property, consumer class action, and other technology disputes. Our lawyers are experienced technology trial lawyers with an exceptional win rate. We know the laws, courts, and jurisdictions where most technology disputes occur, and can explain complex technologies to judges and juries to increase the probability of success in any case. We are known for our ability to manage high-risk cases across multiple venues in the US and worldwide for the world’s leading technology companies.

We can also guide you on evolving best practices for sustainability and environmental, social, and governance issues when considering new ventures, such as alternative supply chains and payment ecosystems. And we can help you report your ESG milestones in your corporate and social responsibility reports.

For decades, clients have trusted us for technology matters. We’re a pioneer in the field, launching in the heart of Silicon Valley more than 50 years ago with our predecessor firm, Gray Cary Ware & Freidenrich LLP, one of the original Silicon Valley law firms.
