Global patent protection for the designer and manufacturer of the BlackBerry® smartphone

From prosecuting patents before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to coordinating the prosecution of counterpart cases in other jurisdictions around the world, Finnegan serves a key role in implementing BlackBerry’s (fka Research In Motion) global patent strategy. Our work also includes filing reexamination requests (both ex parte and inter partes) against third-party patents and fending off reexamination challenges launched by third parties against BlackBerry’s patents.
