Understanding the key mechanisms of discovery in U.S. patent litigation is important to putting your case in the best position to win. In the world of business where litigation is often in many international venues, understanding how to manage those venues and the use of U.S. discovery therein is vital to a global litigation strategy.
In this webinar, the presenters will provide an overview of important discovery mechanisms in U.S. patent litigation. The presenters will also discuss important considerations when managing global patent litigation and the potential cross use of U.S. discovery in foreign proceedings. The presenters will use hypothetical and real-world examples of U.S. discovery issues, global patent litigation strategies, and cross-use possibilities, followed by a question-answer session to answer questions related to the same.
