Intellectual Property Damages Expert in Cary, NC

KW Economics provides intellectual property damages analysis for cases venued in Cary, North Carolina. Patent, trademark, copyright, and trade secret damages, measured claim by claim, rest on the parties' own sales, cost, and license records and on licenses and market data chosen for the technology and the accused products rather than for the city, so for a business based in Cary, Cary-area conditions enter only where the market for the accused product is local. Each royalty input, apportionment step, and sales figure is documented so the measure can be tested at deposition. Patent and copyright claims involving a business in Cary are heard only in federal court, usually together with the related claims under North Carolina law; a license or royalty dispute brought on its own is typically heard in the North Carolina Business Court or the Superior Court sitting in Wake County. Deposition and trial testimony are available for Cary matters, in person or by remote appearance where the forum allows.

An appeal in a patent case goes to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit from every federal district court, so its damages decisions govern a patent case involving a business in Cary wherever the case is filed; appeals in copyright, trademark, and trade secret cases go to the regional court of appeals for the district that heard them.

IP Damages in Cary

Economic analysis and expert testimony on damages in patent, trademark, copyright, and trade secret cases and in license and royalty disputes, for the patentee or the accused infringer and for either side of every other claim. The work measures each remedy the governing statute allows: a reasonable royalty and the patentee's lost profits, including price erosion, apportioned to the patented feature; the defendant's profits, the owner's actual damages, and corrective advertising in a trademark case; actual damages and the infringer's profits in a copyright case, where the infringer carries the burden of its deductible expenses and of the profit owed to other factors; and actual loss, unjust enrichment, or a reasonable royalty for a misappropriated trade secret.

KW Economics serves counsel throughout Cary and the surrounding Wake County area. The analysis measures patent, trademark, copyright, and trade secret damages from the parties' own sales, cost, and license records, apportioned to the protected right, with Cary-area market conditions entering only where the market for the accused product is local, and the report is built for the federal and North Carolina courts that hear intellectual property claims and for their disclosure rules.
