Adam H. Gordon
The Bristol Group PLLC

Adam H. Gordon is the founder and managing partner of The Bristol Group PLLC, a Washington, D.C. firm specializing in international trade and customs matters. His practice is not focused on patent litigation but rather on representing U.S. manufacturers and agricultural groups in trade remedy proceedings. This includes extensive litigation concerning antidumping (AD) and countervailing duty (CVD) matters before the U.S. Department of Commerce and the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC). His work also involves appeals of these matters to the U.S. Court of International Trade and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.

Based on his firm's focus and professional biography, Mr. Gordon's practice is concentrated on defending domestic industries against what they contend are unfairly traded imports. His clients have ranged from family-owned businesses to Fortune 100 corporations. The single tracked case, an appeal from the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (Ledup Manufacturing Group Ltd v. Seasonal Specialties LLC), appears to be an anomaly, as public records and Mr. Gordon's professional profiles do not indicate a practice in patent law or IPR proceedings. Verification of his appearance in that matter is not found in publicly available sources.

Before founding The Bristol Group in 2015, Mr. Gordon was a partner in the international trade practices of Wiley Rein, LLP and Picard, Kentz & Rowe. He has been in private practice since 1993.

Mr. Gordon earned his J.D. with honors from The George Washington University Law School, an M.A. from the University of York in England, and a B.A. from Yale University. He was admitted to the bar in Washington, D.C. in 1994.
