Company profile

Moskowitz Family LLC is a privately held intellectual property holding entity associated with inventor Randall Moskowitz, M.D.. While its headquarters and founding year are not publicly detailed, its core operation revolves around patent assertion.

The company's primary "products" are patents related to spinal implant and surgical instrumentation technologies. These patents cover systems for minimally invasive spinal surgery, including minimal impaction, steerable, and custom-fit intervertebral implants designed to minimize musculoskeletal disruption and nerve root retraction.

Moskowitz Family LLC operates as a non-practicing entity (NPE) or patent assertion entity, actively asserting its patent portfolio against medical device companies. The company has been a plaintiff in multiple patent infringement lawsuits, notably against Globus Medical, Inc. and NuVasive, LLC. The case data provided indicates one appearance as a defendant in a Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) proceeding, specifically "Unified Patents v. Moskowtiz Nathan C et al." This particular case reflects a challenge by Unified Patents, an organization known for challenging the validity of patents asserted by NPEs.

A notable case for Moskowitz Family LLC was its litigation against Globus Medical, Inc., filed in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania in 2020, alleging infringement of patents related to spinal fusion implants and instruments. Although a jury returned a verdict of non-infringement for Globus Medical in December 2023, the jury simultaneously found that Globus had not proven the asserted claims invalid, preserving Moskowitz Family LLC's future litigation options. Prior to this, the PTAB had denied multiple inter partes review (IPR) petitions filed by Globus Medical challenging Moskowitz Family LLC's spinal surgery patents. The company also filed a patent infringement suit against NuVasive, LLC in the District of Delaware in June 2025, involving 10 patents related to the dispute.Moskowitz Family LLC is a privately held intellectual property holding entity associated with inventor Randall Moskowitz, M.D..
