Specialty & background

I'll research this attorney before writing the summary.

Let me dig deeper into specific cases, PTAB activity, and disambiguate a same-name attorney.

Professional Summary — Kolya Glick

Practice focus. Glick's verified litigation record is broader than patent work; he appears to be a commercial and appellate litigator whose docket includes patent cases rather than a dedicated patent specialist. His two tracked patent appearances both involve the Headwater Research wireless-device campaign — patents (e.g., U.S. Nos. 8,023,425; 8,631,102; 8,799,451) directed to wireless end-user devices, network service provisioning, and over-the-air/firmware update technologies. He also appeared for plaintiff HL Klemove Corp. in HL Klemove Corp. v. Foras Technologies Ltd. (E.D. Va. 2023), a patent action where he served as local counsel. His non-patent docket includes Humana Inc. v. Lundbeck, Inc. (W.D. Ky.), the Fifth Circuit Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine v. FDA matter (for GenBioPro), the Colorado Kroger/Albertsons antitrust proceedings, and Colorado election-law litigation. His own scholarship addresses Federal Circuit appellate jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1295 post-AIA ((A)rising Above the Well-Pleaded Complaint, 83 Geo. Wash. L. Rev. 686).

Side preference. He skews defense-side: 0 plaintiff-side and 2 defendant-side tracked appearances, both defending Charter Communications entities against Headwater Research in the Eastern District of Texas (Judge Gilstrap). That said, the HL Klemove matter shows he has also staffed the plaintiff's side of patent cases, so the record does not support describing him as strictly a defense or NPE-side practitioner.

Firm context. All tracked appearances are with Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer in Washington, DC, where he was D.C. Bar No. 1015074. Court filings show he left the firm around early 2025: an unopposed withdrawal motion in the Headwater/Charter matter (Feb. 4, 2025) states he was departing Arnold & Porter, and a similar withdrawal notice in a District of Utah matter is dated Feb. 4, 2026. Colorado state and federal filings from 2026 list a Kolya D. Glick as a Senior Assistant Attorney General in the Colorado Department of Law (Public Officials Unit), representing Governor Polis and the Title Board. The overlap in name, geography of practice, and timing is consistent with the same attorney, but I could not verify the identification from a firm or agency biography, so treat the Colorado AG role as probable rather than confirmed.

Notable cases and outcomes. The most prominent tracked matter is Headwater Research LLC v. Charter Communications, Inc. (E.D. Tex., No. 2:25-cv-00904), consolidated with parallel Headwater suits against DISH and Comcast for pretrial purposes. Glick withdrew from the Charter representation before any merits ruling; the Charter and Comcast cases were later stayed on joint motions pending settlement, with dismissal papers due by Sept. 1, 2026. Nothing in the public record shows a verdict, Federal Circuit opinion, or injunction attributable to him in a patent case.

PTAB / IPR. No IPR, PGR, or other PTAB filings listing Glick as counsel could be verified, and the tracked docket contains no PTAB matters. One PTAB petition-document hit containing his name appears to be a district court complaint filed as an exhibit rather than a Board paper he authored, so I would not characterize him as having meaningful PTAB experience without further confirmation.

Bar / education. D.C. Bar No. 1015074; also appeared pro hac vice and as local counsel under Virginia Bar No. 89196. J.D., George Washington University (2015); recognized in Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch (Appellate Practice) since 2022.
