Parus Holdings, Inc. v. Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky and Popeo, P.C.

Patents:7076431

Parus sued its former IP litigation counsel Mintz (including attorneys Renaud and McNamara) for professional negligence. The complaint alleges counsel's failure to properly present and cite antedating evidence in the '431 IPR caused invalidation of the '431 patent claims and reduced Parus's settlement/licensing values.
