IAM News recently featured Bunsow De Mory in an article titled This California IP Firm is Punching Above Its Weight.IAM News reported that in 2024, Bunsow De Mory ranked second among law firms that defend patent owners before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”). IAM News highlighted Bunsow De Mory’s success rate in defending the validity of their client’s patents in post-issuance challenges as compared to other firms.

Firm managing partner Denise De Mory told IAM News that the firm’s success in defeating inter partes review petitions and other post-grant challenges derives from the same approach it takes in federal court. “We formulate a complete strategy upfront, which includes formulating how we are going to best tell the story of the invention—something PTAB attorneys often fail to do—and which arguments to assert in a preliminary response, and which to hold for the patent owner’s response, if necessary,” De Mory explained.

De Mory highlighted the firm’s deep bench of lawyers who practice at the PTAB and contribute directly to the firm’s success in that forum, including Corey Johanningmeier, Aaron Hand, Richard Lin, Wayne Helge, and Jim Wilson, and Brend Entzminger.

“We are strategic, technically proficient, and trial-tested,” De Mory told IAM News. “Our lawyers have decades of experience and success litigating patent cases in venues throughout the country. And even as the landscape for patent owners has become more difficult in recent years, we win.”
