Intellectual Property Litigation

Fee & Jeffries has extensive experience in litigating a wide variety of intellectual property (IP) disputes. We routinely litigate infringement cases throughout the United States. We understand the challenges and strategies involved in both prosecuting and defending infringement cases. Whether your company is involved in a pre-suit investigation, needs to move quickly to enforce and protect its rights in court, or is involved in proceedings before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, our experienced attorneys stand ready to protect you.

We have represented a wide variety of clients in IP cases ranging from the world famous daredevil, Evel Knievel, to the University of South Florida; from small, local companies to nationwide banking organizations; from southern rock musicians with platinum records, to biomedical companies with cutting-edge technologies; from agri-businesses to web-based retailers; and from specialty software companies to an internationally famous mime. (Yes, we really have litigated a mime case.) In other words, we have experience – real experience and lots of it.
