Dr. Keith O'Doherty combines extensive district court and Federal Circuit litigation experience with a broad technical knowledge. A member of our Intellectual Property Group, Keith litigates both patent and trademark cases, and has worked on a number of appeals before the Federal Circuit, where he clerked for the Honorable Judge Jimmie V. Reyna.

Keith has also worked on Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) and Post Grant Review (PGR) proceedings before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. In non-litigation work, Keith counsels clients regarding patent issues, including non-infringement, invalidity, and patent prosecution strategies.

Keith's technical background enables him to assist clients when the law overlaps with high-tech issues. Keith has research and teaching experience spanning the physical, chemical, and biological sciences, including specific experience with nanotechnology, biotechnology, and the overlap of the biological and physical sciences in general.
