Global IP Reach The Harris Firm operates as a global IP law firm with offices across major jurisdictions (US, Japan, EPC, Germany, France, UK, Netherlands, China, Korea, India, Canada, Australia, Israel) which supports cross-border patent and trademark protection, enforcement, and litigation strategies. This presents sales opportunities for multinational clients seeking integrated IP services and seamless coordination across regions.
Patent and IP Litigation Focus Core practice areas include patents, trademarks, trade secrets, licensing, PTAB and CAFC appeals, post grant proceedings, inter partes review, and enforcement in ITC and district courts. Target clients with complex patent portfolios or disputes requiring multi-front litigation and post-grant strategies.
Near-JPO and USPTO Access Strategic positioning near the USPTO in Washington, DC and near the JPO and IP High Court in Tokyo enables rapid client service, time-to-resolution advantages, and direct examiner interactions. This can be leveraged to pitch expedited prosecution, cross-border oppositions, and bilateral filing efficiencies.
Knowledgeable Talent The firm emphasizes legal, business, and scientific expertise from former industry researchers and USPTO examiners, signaling deep technical credibility. Ideal for clients in high-innovation sectors (biotech, software, electronics) seeking technically informed IP counsel and credible validity analyses.
Growth Opportunity and Scale Gap With a lean size of 2-10 employees and revenue between one and ten million, there is a clear value proposition for clients who want boutique-level attention with global reach, and for mid-market tech and life sciences firms seeking cost-effective, scalable IP services as they grow their portfolios internationally.
