PTAB Proceedings

What we do

Jones Walker represents clients in proceedings before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB), including inter partes review and other postgrant challenges. We advise both petitioners and patent owners on whether PTAB proceedings are likely to advance their objectives — taking into account claim strength, prior art, estoppel risk, timing, and any parallel district court litigation.

How we approach PTAB matters

Our approach emphasizes early, candid assessment and the strategic use of PTAB proceedings as part of a broader dispute strategy. PTAB matters often proceed on accelerated schedules and involve highly technical records, so we work closely with clients and technical experts to develop focused, persuasive arguments.

We also coordinate PTAB outcomes with related litigation, licensing negotiations, and business resolution paths.
