For more than 30 years, Terry Clark has counseled technology companies on intellectual property related matters including patent portfolio development, strategic planning and IP protection through litigation and alternative dispute resolution (ADR) before various national and international forums, including various district courts, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), including the Patent Trial and Appeals Board (PTAB), and the U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC). He has helped clients enforce their rights across an array of high technologies, including chemical, pharmaceutical, semiconductors, computer-related technologies, textiles, power tools, automotive and consumer electronics.
Terry works with leaders at technology-based companies by developing strategic plans and related intellectual property policies, counseling them on dispute prevention and representing them aggressively when litigation or investigations arise. His practice involves:
- Intellectual Property Disputes – Representing clients by both enforcing and defending their intellectual property rights; dispute prevention or litigation over matters related to infringement, cybersquatting, trolling and counterfeiting; preparing complex patent opinions.
- Intellectual Property Investigations – Representing international entities across various industries in investigations of patent infringement under Section 337 before the USITC, especially from Japan and the United Kingdom.
Terry applies his years of experience and successful IP representation to assist these companies in leveraging their intellectual property for future business successes. As part of his practice, Terry regularly serves as an arbitrator and mediator in resolving high technology disputes through domestic and international ADR.
