Janice Kwon — Patent Litigation Practice Summary

Focus areas. Kwon's only tracked patent-litigation appearance is in the RØDE Microphones / Freedman Electronics v. Zaxcom dispute, a wireless-audio patent fight. The patents at issue cover locally recorded, timecode-synchronized wireless microphone transmitters and repair of remotely recorded audio (U.S. Pat. Nos. 7,711,443; 7,929,902; 10,276,207; 11,610,605; 12,051,444), asserted against RØDE's Wireless GO II and Wireless PRO systems. Her technology exposure is therefore in consumer/professional audio electronics, RF wireless transmission and digital audio software — not Wi-Fi standards or pharma.

Side preference. The tracked data show 0 plaintiff-side and 1 defendant-side appearance (counsel for Zaxcom, the patent owner/defendant in the RØDE-filed PTAB challenges and the Delaware action). This is a single-appearance sample, so no reliable pattern of defense-side or NPE/PAE prosecution work can be established from the case list alone. In the one matter where her name appears, she acted for the operating-company patent owner defending its portfolio.

Firm context. She is listed with Chipperson Law Group, P.C. (offices in Morristown and Princeton, NJ, and New York, NY), a boutique IP firm whose Zaxcom matters are led by Rita C. Chipperson (Reg. No. 54,031). Kwon appears in Chipperson correspondence served on the Australian defendant Freedman Electronics (March 2024) and is copied on 2025 IPR correspondence in the same matter. Disambiguation caveat: a "Janice Jieun Kwon" is currently an IP associate at Carter Ledyard & Milburn LLP in New York, admitted to the New York bar in 2024, USPTO-registered, with a Cardozo J.D., practicing in electrical, mechanical and software patents (prosecution, infringement/validity opinions, and litigation support). Her New York registration history shows no listed employer for 2025 and Carter Ledyard as of 2026, which is consistent with — but does not establish — a move from Chipperson to Carter Ledyard. I could not confirm the Chipperson Janice Kwon and the Carter Ledyard Janice Jieun Kwon are the same person; treat the biographical details below as attributable to the Carter Ledyard profile with that caveat.

Notable matters, PTAB and credentials. The Zaxcom litigation is Zaxcom, Inc. v. RØDE Microphones, LLC & Freedman Electronics Pty Ltd., C.A. No. 23-1245-JFM (D. Del., filed Oct. 31, 2023), with parallel PTAB proceedings IPR2025-00230, -00231 and -00232. On June 11, 2026, Zaxcom announced a unanimous 3-0 PTAB final written decision rejecting RØDE/Freedman's challenges to the '443 and '207 patents; the public announcement credits Rita C. Chipperson, not Kwon, as counsel, and the PTAB filings I located name Chipperson alone as counsel of record. On that record, Kwon's PTAB/IPR involvement in the matter is documented at the firm-support level rather than as counsel of record, and I found no evidence she appears regularly in IPR/PGR proceedings. If the Carter Ledyard attribution is correct, she also appeared pro hac vice for patent owner Kaneka Corp. in Kaneka Corp. v. Designs for Health, Inc., No. 1:21-cv-00209 (D. Del., 2025) — a CoQ10/nutraceutical patent case — making her a patent-owner-side litigator in both matters. Bar/education (Carter Ledyard profile): New York bar, USPTO-registered, J.D., Cardozo School of Law.
