Mofo adds IP litigator in Washington
Morrison & Foerster has hired Johnny Chiu as partner in its Washington office.
The IP litigator has experience in representing China and Taiwan-based technology companies before the ITC, and in US federal and state courts.
Chiu spends much of his time in China and Taiwan, where many of his clients have manufacturing facilities. Before joining Morrison & Foerster, Chiu was an IP litigation partner in Covington & Burling’s Washington, DC office.
“In defending against claims brought at the ITC, Chinese companies are in the same place Taiwanese companies were 10 years ago and Japanese companies 20 years ago,” said Chiu. “They are coming to see the value in energetically taking on ITC claims, in partnership with skilled and knowledgeable counsel. I am very pleased to join Morrison & Foerster, which has renowned IP and ITC practices as well as a demonstrated commitment to developing its IP litigation practice in east Asia.”
