Expert and diligent guidance through a complex patent dispute

Our company engaged Paul Skiermont of Skiermont Derby LLP when we were facing a high-stakes patent infringement claim from a competitor in the semiconductor space. From our initial consultation, it was clear that Paul's background, including his recognition in Best Lawyers in America for Intellectual Property Litigation, was more than just a credential. He possesses a rare ability to dissect highly technical subject matter and translate it into compelling legal arguments. His education from the University of Chicago, graduating with High Honors and Order of the Coif, was evident in the precision of his legal strategy. Paul and his team were dedicated and thorough, providing us with a clear assessment of our position and a roadmap through the litigation process in Texas. His three-plus years of focused experience in patent litigation proved invaluable; he anticipated the other side's moves and helped us navigate toward a favorable settlement that protected our core technology. The one area where we occasionally felt a slight delay was in receiving non-urgent email responses, which sometimes took a day or two longer than expected during particularly busy periods. However, when it mattered, Paul was always accessible. We felt confidently represented by a sharp legal mind and would not hesitate to recommend him for complex IP matters.
