Dipu A. Doshi

Dipu A. Doshi is a partner in Blank Rome LLP's Intellectual Property Litigation practice, based in Washington, D.C.. His practice spans patent litigation in U.S. District Courts, inter partes review (IPR) proceedings before the USPTO, and U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) investigations. Doshi's technological focus areas include the chemical industry, particularly "green technology" such as refrigerants and polymers, as well as rechargeable batteries and semiconductor devices, including LED technology. He also has a background as a research associate at MedImmune, Inc., where he worked on developing novel vaccines from biological molecules and optimizing cell culture lines for expressing and purifying proteins.

Doshi primarily represents operating companies as a defendant in patent infringement actions. His work often involves defending clients against infringement claims and challenging patent validity, as evidenced by his role as lead counsel for TomTom, Inc. in Blackbird Tech LLC v. TomTom, Inc.. He has achieved favorable outcomes for clients, including the dismissal with prejudice of a patent infringement case against an LED manufacturer after a successful Markman decision, and favorable settlements for rechargeable battery, chip, and semiconductor manufacturing equipment companies accused of infringement.

His experience extends to post-grant proceedings, with his practice explicitly including inter partes reviews before the USPTO. He defended a chemical company's patent covering next-generation refrigerants from an invalidity challenge at the USPTO. Blank Rome's Intellectual Property practice is recognized for its IPR capabilities, with numerous attorneys registered to practice before the USPTO.

Doshi is admitted to practice in the District of Columbia and New York, as well as before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Court of Federal Claims. He earned his Bachelor of Science and Juris Doctor degrees from George Washington University.
