Spencer Fane attorneys DJ Healey and Matt David recently authored a Chambers and Partners 2025 Practice Guide.
The team’s article, The Significant Patent Law Changes in 2024 May Increase the Threat of Invalidity and Reduce the Threat of Damages, is the Trends and Development feature of Chambers’ Patent Litigation 2025: USA – Texas. In it, DJ and Matt explore the key takeaways of some of the most impactful patent law court rulings from the past year.
“These rulings demand strategic adaptation by patentees, implementers, and practitioners,” the team shares. “Looking ahead … whether advocating for patentees or defending against infringement claims, practitioners must be prepared to navigate this evolving landscape.”
At the firm, DJ and Matt harness their considerable litigation experience as part of the Spencer Fane Intellectual Property Practice Group. DJ, industry-recognized as one of the preeminent intellectual property litigators in the U.S., helps plaintiffs enforce their patents, protect their trade secrets, defend their copyrights, and deal with overreach through antitrust and other business torts. Matt skillfully applies his background in engineering and as a U.S. Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO) examiner to address patent applications with hands-on intel and exceptional creativity.
