Examples of Our International Business Law Cases

WHGC defended a Taiwan-based publicly traded company charged with intellectual property infringement claims in U.S. federal court. Our immediate response was to present our client's opponent with our in-depth analysis on possible damages, our professional opinion on invalidity, and our arguments for non-infringement. Our unique and aggressive approach enabled us to successfully negotiate a favorable settlement on behalf of our client.

In another case we represented a California-based global leader in digital manufacturing in complex multi-patent litigation. Our client had negotiated an arbitration agreement, so our attorneys worked in the private setting of arbitration to effectively in claim construction, which we then leveraged to substantially limit the scope of the damages in the case.

In a third international business law case, we performed due diligence and handled negotiations in the acquisition of a German airport.
