Specialty & background
Dean G. Bostock is an experienced patent litigator with a practice focused on intellectual property disputes, including patent, trademark, copyright, and trade secret cases. Based on his tracked appearances, he has served as "of counsel" and "Trial and Of Counsel" for Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky & Popeo. He previously joined Prince Lobel Tye LLP in 2017 as part of an expansion of their intellectual property practice.
Mr. Bostock's technology experience is broad, encompassing areas such as computer switchers and routers, cellular telephones and networks, speech recognition, medical devices, and software systems. His tracked patent litigation matters predominantly reflect a plaintiff-side preference, with all recorded appearances for Uniloc USA, Inc. against Microsoft Corporation.
A notable case in which he participated was Uniloc USA, Inc. v. Microsoft Corporation, involving a patent for a software registration and anti-piracy system. In this matter, a jury initially awarded Uniloc $388 million in damages. Mr. Bostock was "of counsel" on the appellate brief for Uniloc in the subsequent Federal Circuit appeal, where the court reversed a district court's judgment as a matter of law of non-infringement and its alternative grant of a new trial on infringement.
While his practice spans various aspects of intellectual property, specific details regarding his involvement in PTAB or IPR proceedings are not readily available in public records. He is admitted to practice in the U.S. Courts of Appeals for the Second, Third, Fifth, and Federal Circuits, as well as federal district courts in Massachusetts and the Eastern District of Texas, and is a graduate of Boston University School of Law.
