R. David Hosp Partner

Boston; New York

David brings creativity and determination to all of the matters he handles, whether they involve issues that are novel and complex or more traditional. He has tried matters to both juries and judges, and prepares every one of his cases with the assumption that the matter will be tried to verdict. That attention to preparation often leads to positive results before trial in favorable settlements or rulings on motions to dismiss or on summary judgment, which saves clients time and expense.

Throughout his career, David has been involved in some of the most widely followed cases in the area of trademark, copyright, and media law. For example, David:

  • Represents inventors of AI technology in connection with class action copyright claims brought by copyright owners against Databricks related to training of LLMs.
  • Advises AI technology companies with respect to litigation risks and potential copyright and Lanham Act claims
  • Represents Altice in defending cases brought by the music industry alleging secondary liability for subscribers’ alleged infringement of musical works utilizing BitTorrent on Altice’s internet platforms;
  • Represents the University of Washington in defense of First Amendment claims brought by a professor where UW was recently granted summary judgment on all claims;
  • Recently represented UW in successful defense of defamation claims brought by Project Veritas over debunking of 2020 election interference reports;
  • Recently represented blockchain company partnered with Quentin Tarantino in successful defense of first-impression copyright and trademark claims brought by Miramax over the creation and sale of NFTs involving the hand-written script for the motion picture Pulp Fiction;
  • Represented Samsung in successful defense and settlement of trademark and unfair competition claims brought in the Southern District of New York regarding Samsung’s MILK music streaming service;
  • Represented Microsoft in successful defense and settlement of copyright claims filed in the Southern District of New York by Getty Images, Inc. related to the operation of Bing search engine;
  • Represented New Balance at trial in the International Trade Commission in the successful defense of trade dress claims brought by Nike/Converse. That case was cited by IP Law360 as the top trademark ruling of 2016;
  • Served as Aereo’s lead trial counsel in the successful defense in the Southern District of New York (874 F. Supp.2d 373 (S.D.N.Y. 2012)) and lead appellate counsel in the successful appeal at the Second Circuit (712 F.3d 676 (2d Cir. 2013)). The case was ultimately decided by the Supreme Court on an issue of first impression in 2015;
  • Represented Cablevision in the Southern District of New York in Cartoon Network LLP v. CSC Holdings, Inc. (478 F. Supp. 2d 607 (S.D.N.Y. 2007)), and was instrumental in developing the arguments that ultimately succeeded at the Second Circuit, which clarified copyright law on issues of both reproduction and public performance (536 F.3d 121 (2d Cir. 2008);
  • Served as lead trial counsel for Triumph Learning in the successful defense of trademark claims in Coach Services, Inc. v. Triumph Learning LLC (96 U.S.P.Q.2d 1600 (T.T.A.B. 2010)), and successfully defended that verdict before the Federal Circuit (668 F.3d 1356 (Fed. Cir. 2012)) in a decision that established a new standard for “fame” in trademark dilution cases;
  • Served as lead trial counsel for the New York Times and The Boston Globe in Gatehouse v. The New York Times, a case of first impression that involved both copyright and trademark claims, which settled favorably just prior to trial (2012);
  • As a senior associate, served as a member of the trial and appellate team in Lorillard v. Reilly, a case that was ultimately decided in the client’s favor at the United States Supreme Court (533 U.S. 525 (2001)), in one of the leading First Amendment commercial speech decisions in recent jurisprudence.

The Hollywood Reporter has previously included David in its annual Power 100 edition, highlighting the most influential media attorneys in the country, and naming his team’s defense of Aereo, Inc. against claims brought by the country’s major television broadcasters at the trial court and before the Second Circuit as the “Case of the Year.” He has been recognized as a leading practitioner in The American Lawyer, The World Trademark Review 1000, and The Legal 500, among other legal publications. He also writes extensively about the law, and has lectured at Harvard Law School’s Berkman Center, Boston College Law School and the New England School of Law.

Joseph Liburt Partner

Silicon Valley

Clients turn to Joe again and again as a creative problem solver and trusted advisor in helping them achieve their goals quickly and efficiently.

For example, in a wage class action for Sears, Joe quarterbacked an unusual strategy to dismiss the case. The team discovered that the plaintiff had filed for bankruptcy, and filed a motion to dismiss because the plaintiff no longer owned the lawsuit, the bankruptcy trustee did. But the plaintiff argued he might re-acquire the lawsuit in bankruptcy court, and the district court allowed him to try. In the bankruptcy court, Joe had Sears buy the lawsuit (an asset of the plaintiff’s bankruptcy estate) for a nominal amount, and then returned to the district court where Sears, now the owner of the class action against itself, dismissed the case with prejudice.

In Pao v. Kleiner Perkins, the high-stakes gender discrimination and retaliation case that garnered intense national scrutiny, Joe led the trial team's work on jury instructions and expert witnesses.

Joe is praised by clients, co-counsel and colleagues for his collaborative approach and ability to bring out the best work from the team.
