International Trade Commission First-Chair Litigator Returns to Orrick

2 minute read | August.03.2026

Chambers-ranked Section 337 trial lawyer Jordan Coyle rejoins Orrick’s IP litigation team as a partner in Washington, D.C. Jordan focuses on high-stakes patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret misappropriation investigations and proceedings before the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC).
Jordan has helped clients navigate 70 Section 337 investigations – including 17 trials – from pre-complaint counseling and diligence through Federal Circuit appeals. He represents complainants, respondents, intervenors and non-parties alike, for clients spanning Fortune 500 companies to leading disruptors in consumer goods and electronics, semiconductors, medical devices, automotive, industrial equipment, solar panels and health and wellness.
Jordan began his career at Orrick and served as a partner for six years, joining White & Case as a partner in 2023. He is Orrick’s fourth IP partner hire this year, following the recent additions of Danielle Tully and Mike Powell from Cadwalader and Josh Glucoft from Kirkland & Ellis. Orrick was recognized by American Lawyer as an IP Litigation Department of the Year finalist for the second time in a row in 2025 (fourth time overall).

“Our IP practice is on fire and the ITC is an incredibly active venue,” said Alyssa Caridis, leader of Orrick’s global Intellectual Property Business Unit. “Jordan is an exceptional talent and we’re thrilled to join forces again.”

“Orrick’s tech litigation and appellate litigation platform is a destination for clients at the forefront of innovation,” said Jordan. “I’m thrilled to reunite with my colleagues and to collaborate with them to deliver outstanding results, including through innovative service delivery, for our extraordinary portfolio of clients.”

Jordan also has extensive experience litigating in federal courts across the country in all manner of IP disputes involving patents, trademarks, trade secrets and copyright, including claims under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
