Who Hires CD

CD’s first client was a small American manufacturing firm facing the theft of secrets from its Chinese licensee. CD took the case from inception to trial at the International Trade Commission in less than 7 months. That hearing featured testimony on trade secret valuation, competitive injury, and international trade – the three pillars of CD’s expertise.

CD has rapidly built a substantial base of clients who demand the integrated analysis of IP, competition, and trade. Recent cases include:

  • international standard-setting in telecommunications
  • global lost profits resulting from domestic infringement
  • design patents infringed by former international licensees
  • location-aware technologies powered by global satellite and terrestrial networks
  • international patent rights in peer-to-peer networks
  • services in the global supply chain that create an international patchwork of infringement
