FAQ
Patent litigation refers to the legal process two parties disagree about the use of a patent. In these patent legal cases, the patent holder seeks to protect their IP right by filing a lawsuit against a perceived infringement. Patent cases often involve claims of patent infringement, where the defendant is accused of making, using, selling, or importing a patented invention without permission. Access to previous case law is crucial in patent litigation, as it guides decision-making, allows parties to present relevant precedents, and streamlines the arbitration process. Understanding the intricacies of patent litigation is essential for protecting patents and ensuring fair competition in the market.
