Specialty & background

Josh A. Krevitt is a highly regarded patent litigator with extensive experience in high-stakes intellectual property and trade secret disputes. His practice focuses on a broad range of technology areas, including wireless devices and transmissions, telecommunications hardware and software, semiconductors, integrated circuit design, data storage, microprocessor design, internet-related technologies (such as content compression and transmission), and LCD design and fabrication. He also handles pharmaceutical-sector disputes, including ANDA litigation.

Krevitt primarily represents leading technology and operating companies as a defendant, frequently defending them against patent infringement allegations from non-practicing entities. While he has successfully represented both plaintiffs and defendants in jury and bench trials, his client roster and tracked case appearances (0 plaintiff, 5 defendant) underscore a strong emphasis on defense-side work for major corporations like T-Mobile, Dell, Apple, Fitbit, and EMC.

He is currently a partner and Co-Chair of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher's Intellectual Property Practice, as well as a member of the firm's Executive Committee. Prior to joining Gibson Dunn in 2006, Krevitt was a partner at Weil, Gotshal & Manges LLP. His tracked cases also show appearances at Sidley Austin and Kirkland & Ellis.

Krevitt has achieved numerous notable outcomes, including securing a complete victory for Fitbit against Philips in a high-profile patent case at the International Trade Commission and successfully defending T-Mobile in patent infringement lawsuits brought by Realtime Data, LLC, and Prism Technologies. He also obtained a directed verdict of noninfringement for Dell in a $435 million patent trial involving cloud computing patents and achieved a complete appellate victory for Dell EMC in ACQIS v. Dell EMC. His practice involves trials in district courts across the country, the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC), and appeals to the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals, where he has successfully argued numerous cases.

While Gibson Dunn's IP practice is actively involved in proceedings before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB), Krevitt's individual profile and case history predominantly highlight his district court and ITC trial work. He is admitted to practice in California, New York, and New Jersey. Krevitt earned his Juris Doctor from Boston University in 1992 and a Bachelor of Arts from Columbia University in 1989.
