Jeremy Sanders — patent litigation practice summary
Specialty / focus. Sanders is a Seattle-based IP partner at FisherBroyles whose practice is primarily patent prosecution and portfolio strategy rather than courtroom litigation. His firm biography lists mechanical, electro-mechanical, and software arts as core technical strengths, with client work spanning nuclear energy development, energy storage and transmission, medical devices (including radiopharmaceuticals), AI/machine vision, robotics, LTE wireless technologies, optics, sporting equipment, computer-implemented business methods, software/SaaS, and satellite and space-vehicle launch systems. USPTO registration data for Reg. No. 47916 shows heavy prosecution volume for applicants such as Navitas Semiconductor, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, TerraPower, Acucela, Empower Semiconductor, Derrick Corporation, Polar Electro, Roche Sequencing Solutions, and several university research foundations — a semiconductor, life-sciences, and industrial/mechanical mix. The single tracked litigation matter (an aerial adventure-park / zip-track patent dispute) is consistent with that mechanical-arts profile.
Side preference. Tracked data show only one appearance, on the plaintiff side, as lead counsel — so any statement of side preference rests on a very thin sample and should be treated as provisional. His broader practice description (portfolio development, licensing, "assertion strategies") suggests a patent-owner orientation rather than a defense-side operating-company practice. Notably, the related JiMi IP, LLC and Rope Courses, Inc. v. Funcity Adventure Park matter in the Northern District of Illinois (1:24-cv-05275) was brought by FisherBroyles as plaintiff's counsel against an operator of competing aerial adventure attractions; that case was dismissed without prejudice under a Rule 41(a)(1)(A)(ii) stipulation, with a conditional 90-day conversion to dismissal with prejudice and no merits ruling, injunction, or damages award on record. Counsel of record in that case were other FisherBroyles attorneys (Patricia Y. Ho and William F. Dolan), not Sanders, so it should not be attributed to him personally.
Firm context and notable matters. Sanders joined FisherBroyles as a partner in the Seattle office around March 2019, part of a wave of lateral IP partner hires. Before that he was Associate General Counsel (IP) at TerraPower, working on advanced nuclear reactor and fuel designs; earlier he was division IP counsel for the Launch Systems group at ATK (space vehicles, propulsion, defense articles), Chief IP Counsel at James Hardie Building Products, and a partner at Lee & Hayes, PLLC, with earlier time at Knobbe, Martens, Olson & Bear LLP. The most prominent tracked case is JiMi IP, LLC et al. v. WA7 Volli, No. 2:26-cv-03272 (W.D. Wash.), a §271 patent infringement action with Sanders listed as lead counsel for the plaintiffs. No verdicts, appellate decisions, or public settlements attributable to him personally were verified in the sources reviewed; the Funcity dismissal described above is the only outcome I could confirm in the related portfolio litigation.
PTAB / IPR, bar, and education. His firm bio states that he handles "matters before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board," but no specific IPR or PGR proceedings naming him were verified in this search — the PTAB experience appears to be described at a practice level rather than documented in a public docket sample. He coauthored a brief in Alice Corp. v. CLS Bank International before the U.S. Supreme Court, per his firm biography. Admissions: Washington, California (State Bar No. 219014, admitted 2002), and the USPTO. Education: J.D., J. Reuben Clark Law School, Brigham Young University, 2001; B.S., Mechanical Engineering, Brigham Young University, 1997.
Note on identification: this profile is matched to Jeremy Paul Sanders at FisherBroyles (Cal. Bar No. 219014; USPTO Reg. No. 47916). Common-name ambiguity exists, so appearance data and any figure corroborated only by the firm website or the bar/registration records should be confirmed independently before use.
