The litigation and enforcement team at LaRiviere, Grubman & Payne forms a unique combination of experience, effective trial instincts and thoroughness, technical expertise, budget consciousness, creativity and common sense. We combine the service, continued personal contact and flexibility of a small firm with the capacity to handle substantial intellectual property litigation cases. Our work also included proceedings before the Patent and Trademark Office and internet domain name dispute resolution.
Our litigation team is headed by partner Robert Payne, an AV-rated litigator with over thirty years litigation experience, including multi-million dollar judgments and settlements; past Chair of the Intellectual Property Section of the State Bar; and current Vice Chair of Patent Litigation Committee of the American Intellectual Property Law Association. The core team also includes associates Alan Engle and Christopher Passarelli, and a dedicated support staff.
