Jamie Y. Otto

I'll research this attorney's professional background before drafting.

Let me dig into the specific tracked cases and any PTAB/IPR activity.

Jamie Y. Otto — patent litigation summary

Practice focus. Otto is senior counsel and Pro Bono Counsel at Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, based in the firm's Los Angeles office (previously Palo Alto). Her practice centers on patent litigation, trade secret disputes, and licensing/counseling work, with a stated focus on computer hardware, consumer electronics, mobile communications technology, financial services technology, and software. The tracked cases bear that out: mobile/unattended-retail payment technology (PayRange's "BluKey" system), payment tokenization and credential-verification patents (Cortex MCP v. Visa), and wearable motion-sensor electronics (her earlier appearance for Blast Motion in Blast Motion, Inc. v. Zepp Labs, Inc., S.D. Cal.). There is no evidence of pharmaceutical, life-sciences, or Wi-Fi/standards-essential patent work.

Side preference. She works both sides roughly evenly, consistent with the 2–2 plaintiff/defendant split in her tracked matters. She acted for plaintiffs/patent owners in the PayRange enforcement campaign and for Blast Motion, and for defendants in Cortex MCP v. Visa (representing Visa) and in Alliance Laundry Systems v. PayRange (representing PayRange as defendant/counterclaimant). In several of these she is listed alongside Wilson Sonsini partners James C. Yoon and Ryan R. Smith; the structured data characterizes her role as "lead counsel" in the two PayRange matters and "counsel" in the others.

Firm context. Her entire tracked patent-litigation career is at Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati; the searchable record shows no prior law-firm employer. Before joining the firm she worked in Duke's Start-Up Ventures Clinic, and her technical background includes software-engineering internships at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Daewoo Electronics.

Notable matters and PTAB/IPR activity. In PayRange Inc. v. Nayax Ltd. (W.D. Tex., filed June 2024), the parties resolved the dispute and PayRange dismissed the case in March 2025. In Alliance Laundry Systems, LLC v. PayRange Inc. (D. Del., C.A. No. 24-733), she helped defend a declaratory-judgment action and assert PayRange's infringement counterclaims; the parallel PTAB challenges (Alliance's PGR2025-00027/-00028 and IPR2025-00573, -00950, -00973) were met with discretionary-denial requests, with the Board denying institution in at least one decision. In Cortex MCP, Inc. v. Visa, Inc. (N.D. Cal.), the district court stayed the case pending five Visa IPR petitions (IPR2024-00486–00490); the PTAB issued mixed Final Written Decisions in July 2025, and the appeals are pending at the Federal Circuit. Her PTAB work is meaningful but not a standalone practice emphasis, and the record is thinner than for her district-court work.

Bar and education (sourced). Admitted to the State Bar of California (SBN 295099). J.D., Duke University School of Law (2013); M.S., Educational Technology, California State University, East Bay; B.S., Computer Science, Yale University. Note: sources render her name both as "Jamie Y. Otto" and "Jamie Yoo Otto"; the WSGR profile and California bar number are consistent with a single attorney.
