Foley & Lardner boosts team with two IP litigators

Foley & Lardner has boosted its team with the addition of Duane Mathiowetz and Rick Chang in the firm’s IP litigation practice in the San Francisco and Silicon Valley offices.

Mathiowetz, a patent attorney, primarily represents clients in patent litigation before US district courts and the International Trade Commission (ITC) and in post-grant proceedings before the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

Chang, also a patent attorney, represents technology clients in patent, trade secrets, and complex commercial matters in the district court, America Invents Act procedures before the USPTO and section 337 investigations at the ITC.

Bill Robinson, chair of Foley’s IP litigation practice, said: “Duane and Rick’s combined experience will greatly benefit our clients and enhance our ability to handle additional patent litigation matters in the Northern District of California.”

Prior to joining Foley, Mathiowetz and Chang were shareholders at LeClairRyan.
