Pilar G. Kraman

Pilar G. Kraman is a Partner at Young Conaway Stargatt & Taylor, LLP, focusing her practice on patent infringement, trade secret, and complex commercial litigation in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware and Delaware's state courts. She is recognized for her deep knowledge of Delaware practice and procedure, often serving as local counsel in high-stakes intellectual property disputes.

Kraman's experience spans a range of high-technology sectors, including pharmaceuticals, medical devices, computer software, Internet technology, data cables and connectors, and consumer electronics and display devices. Her tracked patent litigation appearances consistently show her representing defendants. Notably, she has served as local counsel for defendants in cases such as Greenthread, LLC v. Monolithic Power Systems, Inc., Guardant Health, Inc. v. Tempus AI, Inc., and Delaware Display Group LLC v. VIZIO Inc.

While Young Conaway's intellectual property team handles matters for both plaintiffs and defendants, Kraman's tracked cases indicate a primary role in defending companies against patent infringement allegations. Information regarding specific PTAB or IPR proceedings she has handled is not readily available in public profiles or firm descriptions.

Kraman earned her J.D. from the University of Pittsburgh School of Law, an M.P.A. from Eastern Kentucky University, and a B.A.S.W. from the University of Kentucky. She is admitted to practice in Delaware and the District of Columbia, and before the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, and the U.S. Supreme Court.
