Law Offices of Carl E. Person: Patent Litigation Profile

As of: 2026-05-08

The Law Offices of Carl E. Person is a solo litigation practice based in New York, New York. Founded by principal Carl E. Person, a Harvard Law School graduate, the firm has a long history of representing individuals and small businesses in litigation against large corporations. While the firm's broader litigation experience includes antitrust, civil rights, and copyright matters, its patent litigation practice appears to be opportunistic rather than a core focus. The firm is not ranked by major legal directories such as Chambers or The American Lawyer, which is typical for a solo practice.

The firm's patent litigation activity is defined by a single tracked case, where it represented a plaintiff. This representation suggests a practice focus on asserting patent rights on behalf of technology holders. In its sole tracked patent case, the firm represented Neomedia Technologies, Inc., a company that holds patents related to mobile barcode scanning and methods for using machine-readable codes to access online content. Public information on the outcome of this specific litigation is not readily available.

The firm's one documented patent case was an enforcement action on behalf of the patent holder against a major technology company:

• Neomedia Technologies, Inc. v. Amazon.com, Inc.: The firm served as lead counsel for plaintiff Neomedia Technologies in this matter. Details regarding the specific patents-in-suit and the resolution of the case are not available in public records.

There is no record of the Law Offices of Carl E. Person having a practice before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB), and the firm does not appear to file or defend against petitions for inter partes review (IPR). The practice is led by its founder, Carl E. Person.
