About
Fish & Richardson P.C., founded in 2009 in Wilmington, DE, is a global law firm focused on patent, intellectual property, and commercial litigation. The Delaware office represents plaintiffs and defendants in disputes across life sciences, medical devices, semiconductors, and other complex technologies.
The firm tries cases through verdict, handles damages phases—including standard-essential patent disputes—and litigates chancery and corporate governance matters. Its attorneys brief and argue appeals in federal and state courts. The team includes trial lawyers such as principal Joseph B. Warden, whose work spans first-chair trials, patent damages, and appellate advocacy, with outcomes that include materially reduced damages awards for accused infringers and eight-figure verdicts and nine-figure settlements for patent holders.
With offices across major U.S. markets and internationally in Munich and Shenzhen, the firm coordinates matters that cross jurisdictions. The Wilmington team handles cases in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware and in appellate courts, advising on complex IP and corporate disputes.
