Specialty & background
Specialty / focus. Amy R. Lucas is a trial and appellate litigator at O'Melveny & Myers (Century City), where her publicly described practice centers on complex commercial litigation — contract, trademark, copyright, right-of-publicity, business torts, mass tort/product liability, and class actions — across entertainment, media, technology, pharmaceutical, and consumer-products industries. Her tracked patent work is limited but real: lead counsel for Evenflo in Baby Jogger, LLC v. Evenflo Company, Inc. (D. Del., 1:24-cv-00723), a mechanical-patent dispute over stroller frame/seating patents (U.S. Patent Nos. 11,192,568; 11,505,231; 11,577,771; 11,731,682; 11,878,729), and counsel of record for Samsung in the Netlist v. Samsung memory-patent litigation (C.D. Cal.). No technology-specialty niche (Wi-Fi/SEP, pharma Hatch-Waxman, etc.) is evident; her patent exposure appears case-driven within a broader commercial/IP practice.
Side preference. Tracked data shows one appearance — a single defendant-side engagement (0 plaintiff-side) — and her verifiable docket work is uniformly for operating companies: Samsung, Evenflo, pharmaceutical defendants, and media/entertainment clients. There is no indication of NPE/PAE-side representation. She joined O'Melveny after clerking for Judge Sandra S. Ikuta on the Ninth Circuit; no other law-firm affiliations appear in the sources reviewed.
Notable cases / outcomes / PTAB. Her most prominent tracked matter is Baby Jogger v. Evenflo, filed June 2024; Evenflo and co-petitioners subsequently filed IPR petitions against Baby Jogger patents (e.g., IPR2025-01100, -01122, -01140), with trial instituted in at least two as of mid-2026 — but I could not verify that Lucas personally appeared before the PTAB, and no record shows her appearing regularly in IPR/PGR proceedings. Her highest-profile verified result is the California opioid trial where the O'Melveny team (led by Michael Yoder, including Lucas) obtained a complete defense verdict against municipalities seeking over $50 billion — named the #1 Most Impressive Defense Verdict of 2021 by Courtroom View Network and covered by The American Lawyer. Other notable matters include West & Zampella v. Activision (Call of Duty/Modern Warfare), HFPA v. Dick Clark Productions (Golden Globes), TikTok-related litigation, and post-trial work for Samsung in the Netlist case.
Bar / education. California bar (admitted 2009); UCLA School of Law, J.D. 2008 (Order of the Coif); Northwestern University, B.S. Communications 2003 (magna cum laude). Admitted to the U.S. Supreme Court, Ninth Circuit, and the Central and Northern Districts of California.
