Camila A. Tapernoux

A brilliant strategist who guided us through a complex patent dispute

Our company faced a high-stakes patent infringement claim that threatened a core product line. We were referred to Camila Tapernoux at Morrison Foerster, and it was the best decision we could have made. From our initial consultation in her San Francisco office, Camila demonstrated a command of the intricate technical details that went far beyond a surface-level understanding. Her background from Columbia Law and her specific recognition in both Intellectual Property Law and Patent Litigation were immediately evident. She didn't just react to the claim; she developed a proactive, multi-faceted strategy that considered litigation, licensing, and potential design-around options. What impressed me most was her ability to translate complex patent law and litigation procedure into clear, actionable business advice for our executive team. Her three years of focused experience felt like far more, given her poise and strategic foresight. Camila and her team were relentlessly prepared, professional under pressure, and ultimately secured a settlement that completely protected our product's market position without the crippling cost of a full trial. She is a formidable advocate who earns every bit of her recognition. I would not hesitate to engage her for any intellectual property matter.
