J. Mark Mann

J. Mark Mann is a senior trial attorney and partner at the Texas firm Mann | Tindel | Thompson, where his practice includes a significant focus on plaintiff-side patent infringement litigation. He regularly serves as local counsel in the Eastern and Western Districts of Texas for patent assertion entities and technology developers in cases against large, established technology companies. His patent-related work is concentrated in the wireless communications sector, with repeated appearances in litigation involving Wi-Fi standards.

Mr. Mann's practice exclusively involves representing patent holders. The provided case data shows him representing plaintiff Atlas Global Technologies LLC, an Acacia Research entity, in its enforcement campaign involving Wi-Fi 6 technology patents. Public records show he has also served as local counsel for other prominent patent plaintiffs, including the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) in its litigation over error-correction technology in Wi-Fi standards against defendants like HP and Microsoft, and for VLSI Technology LLC. This consistent representation of patent owners against product manufacturers firmly establishes his practice on the plaintiff side.

A Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers, Mr. Mann is part of a firm recognized for its litigation activity. While his direct role in specific trial outcomes is not detailed in public records, the campaigns he has participated in have had notable results, including a $37.5 million jury verdict for Atlas Global against TP-Link in a related matter. No records indicate that Mr. Mann has a practice before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB).

Mr. Mann earned his J.D. from Baylor University School of Law and was admitted to the State Bar of Texas in 1981.
