Lisa Marie Kattan

I'll research this attorney before drafting, since the tracked case data is minimal (one unnamed defendant-side matter).

Good material. Let me verify the notable case outcomes and her PTAB/IPR footprint.

Let me confirm her PTAB/IPR appearances and the Federal Circuit outcome in the DISH/iFIT appeal.

Lisa Marie Kattan — Baker Botts LLP (Washington, D.C.)

Specialty / focus. Kattan is an International Trade Commission Section 337 practitioner rather than a generalist district court patent litigator. Baker Botts and Chambers both describe her docket as spanning communications standards and telecommunications hardware, streaming video (adaptive bitrate), semiconductor manufacturing and memory devices, polymer and CMP slurry formulations, pharmaceuticals (smallpox vaccine, antifungals, hormone treatments), DNA sequencing, medical devices (radiotherapy, CPAP, endotracheal tubes, intraocular lenses), and consumer products (toner cartridges, flash memory, blenders). Her practice is built around ITC investigations plus the adjacent fronts they generate: Customs and Border Protection Rule 177 exclusion-order proceedings, companion district court suits, Federal Circuit appeals, and foreign parallel litigation.

Side preference. The tracked data supplied to me is thin — one appearance, defendant-side, as lead counsel, in an unnamed Baker Botts matter — so it should not be read as a reliable picture of her practice. Her documented public record runs in the other direction: she is best known as complainant's counsel, most prominently for DISH/Sling TV, and her ITC tenure involved serving as lead trial counsel for the U.S. Government (the Commission's own investigative staff). The defendant-side tally is nonetheless consistent with her ITC work, where she also represents respondents such as LGEUS and VIZIO in glass-substrate investigations. Net: she works both sides, but offensive Section 337 enforcement for technology and semiconductor clients is her dominant profile.

Firm context. Kattan has been a Baker Botts partner since 2016 and serves as firmwide chair of the ITC litigation practice group and chair of the Washington, D.C. IP group. Before that she spent 2011–2016 as a Senior Investigative Attorney in the ITC's Office of Unfair Import Investigations, and earlier practiced at Venable (reported as roughly nine years) and at the boutique Roper & Quigg, which later merged into Jenner & Block. She is not in-house.

Notable matters. Certain Fitness Devices, Streaming Components Thereof, and Systems Containing Same (Inv. No. 337-TA-1265) is her most visible result: the Commission issued limited exclusion and cease-and-desist orders in March 2023 against Peloton and iFIT/NordicTrack over adaptive bitrate streaming patents (U.S. Pat. Nos. 10,469,554; 10,469,555; 10,757,156). Peloton paid $75 million for a license to lift the ban, and Baker Botts has characterized the overall resolution as exceeding $100 million; Kattan also led the follow-on enforcement proceeding and Rule 177 activity. She and Katharine Burke obtained an ITC exclusion order for CMC Materials/Entegris against DuPont on CMP slurry patents, which drove a December 2024 global settlement while the exclusion order stayed in place. She represented LGEUS and VIZIO in the liquid-crystal-display glass-substrate investigations (337-TA-1433 and -1441, settled) and has an ongoing matter in 337-TA-1449 (balloon dilation devices). She is also a frequent commentator on ITC practice (e.g., Bloomberg Law on the Apple Watch/Masimo exclusion order; Law360 on Crocs v. ITC appeal deadlines).

PTAB / IPR. Her ITC matters have repeatedly run alongside PTAB challenges to the same patents — the DISH streaming patents, for instance, drew multiple IPR petitions (fuboTV, Aylo Freesites, WebGroup Czech Republic) — and Baker Botts markets her group as coordinating ITC, district court, post-grant, and appellate strategy. I did not verify any IPR or PGR proceeding in which she is personally counsel of record, so her individual PTAB footprint should be treated as unconfirmed; there is no evidence of a standalone PTAB practice.

Bar / education. J.D., Northwestern University School of Law (1999); M.S., Scientific and Technical Communication, University of Minnesota (1996); B.A., Chemistry and English, University of South Dakota (1994). Admitted in Illinois (1999) and D.C. (2003); registered with the USPTO; admitted before the Federal Circuit, the Court of International Trade, the Supreme Court, and the Eastern District of Texas.
