Finnegan continues to be a leading firm for proceedings before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB). Between 2020 and 2022, Finnegan handled over 300 PTAB trials, placing the firm as the second most active firm at the PTAB.
Law360 interviewed Finnegan partner and leader of the PTAB trials section Josh Goldberg about the statistics. “A lot of it comes down to doing it since the beginning, and doing it in a big way since the beginning."
"We were involved in the very first case ... on the day that PTAB proceedings came into existence," Josh said, referring to a post-grant review on behalf of client SAP America Inc. that challenged a pricing patent, which was ultimately invalidated. "We have built up a ton of experience over the years, and as with most things, experience tends to lead to better results."
