Specialty & background

Benjamin A. Smyth's patent litigation practice, as reflected in available public records and his firm's profile, indicates a primary focus on complex commercial disputes and Delaware business entities, with limited direct involvement in patent infringement matters.

His sole tracked patent litigation appearance is in Astellas Pharma Inc. et al. v. Various ANDA Filers, where he served as Local Counsel for the plaintiff. This case suggests an involvement in pharmaceutical matters, specifically those related to Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) litigation. However, his professional biography at McCarter & English emphasizes litigation involving trade secrets, contracts, and disputes arising from mergers and acquisitions, including a representative matter for Astellas Pharma concerning milestone payments from a biotechnology company acquisition rather than patent infringement itself.

Mr. Smyth primarily works at McCarter & English, LLP. His practice frequently involves representing clients in all Delaware courts, including the Court of Chancery and the Delaware Supreme Court, as well as federal appellate and district courts. His firm profile does not indicate a regular appearance in PTAB or IPR proceedings.

Benjamin Smyth is admitted to practice in all Delaware courts and federal appellate and district courts. He was appointed to the Delaware Board of Bar Examiners by the Delaware Supreme Court.
