| A B O U T T H E C O N F E R E N C E “Given recent case law, the usual courses of action for pursuing or defending claims for lost profits, reasonable royalties, and damages from price erosion and convoyed sales may no longer be adequate to guarantee success. Patent trial lawyers must be prepared to address certain critical questions: • Are your damages “experts” really qualified under Daubert and Kumho Tire? • Is your damages data complete and accurate? • Do market realities support damages for price erosion or lost convoyed sales? • What is the relationship between legal and economic standards for determining reasonable royalties? • What role should litigation play in managing a patent portfolio? This seminar gives you the tools to answer these and other key questions.” Program Co-Chairs: Michael S. Connor, Esq. of Alston & Bird LLP, and Timothy P. Daniel, Ph.D. of NERA Economic Consulting. Credits: NC CLE Pending; GA 7.0 CLE; CA 7.25 MCLE; WA 7.0 CLE; Call about others. Who Should Attend? Attorneys and business executives involved with patent transactions and patent litigation. |
