An Inter Partes Review (IPR) is a trial proceeding conducted before the Patent Trial & Appeal Board, focusing on the patentability of claims in an issued patent in light of the prior art. Once initiated, IPR proceedings operate like a mini-trial of patentability issues, often as an adjunct to ongoing patent litigation. Alex has handled numerous IPRs for a range of multinational companies and his success rates, both as petitioner and patent holder, are well above the national averages.
