Marc Weinstein
Registered Patent Attorney
As an intellectual property attorney for over 25 years, Marc Weinstein has developed a broad-based expertise across all aspects of patent law with a focus on litigation, licensing, IP counseling, and post-grant proceedings. Mr. Weinstein applies this broad-based expertise to advise clients on how to best manage, monetize, and manage risk in IP matters, from developing strategic and cost-effective patent portfolios to asserting those portfolios to earn licensing fees and defend against patent assertions from competitors.
Mr. Weinstein has worked on numerous patent infringement litigations, both at the U.S. District Court and at the International Trade Commission (ITC). His experience involves every phase of litigation including preparing complaints and answers, taking and defending depositions, conducting all aspects of discovery, and drafting motions and briefs. In conjunction with litigation, Mr. Weinstein has also prepared and defended against dozens of Inter Partes Reviews (IPRs) and Post Grant Reviews (PGRs).
In addition to litigation, Mr. Weinstein also has abundant experience in license negotiations representing both licensors and licensees. Those negotiations have resulted in tens of millions of dollars of licensing fees for his clients as well as multiple favorable cross-licenses when representing clients against their competitors.
Besides dispute-related work, Mr. Weinstein has extensive involvement in IP counseling including advising clients on patent portfolio development, filing and continuation strategies, and developing strategic protection of products and targeting of competitors. He has also drafted and prosecuted hundreds of patent applications across a variety of technologies including computer software and hardware, semiconductors, GPS and navigation, displays, and mechanical designs.
Having lived and worked in Tokyo for over 10 years, Mr. Weinstein has extensive experience working with Japanese clients. During his time in Japan, he worked closely with Japanese clients on a variety of matters including strategic prosecution, opinions, licensing, patent litigation and post-grant proceedings.
Marc obtained his undergraduate degree in electrical engineering from Pennsylvania State University and his juris doctorate degree from the Georgetown University Law Center. Mr. Weinstein is also a former patent examiner at the USPTO, where he examined patent applications related to I/O processing and multi-computer architectures.
