Caterpillar, Inc.

Since 2000, Finnegan has worked closely with the inventors and legal staff at Caterpillar Inc. In addition to our work on utility patents and trademark matters, Caterpillar has entrusted us to prepare and prosecute design patents ranging from paving machines and ground engaging elements to on- and off-highway trucks and truck parts and autonomous and manned construction machines. We have also assisted Caterpillar in opinion matters and inter partes post-grant reviews involving design patents.
