In the life sciences space, he helped secure a $178 million patent infringement verdict for a Bay Area pharmaceutical client, was instrumental in obtaining a highly favorable settlement in a complex contract case involving CAR-T technology, and fended off IPRs filed against foundational fusion protein technology by biosimilar makers. In the technology space, his facility with both web programming and legal minutiae has resulted in victories in a bet-the-company trade secret litigation against a startup revolutionizing scientific research, summary judgment in an action against his client involving five widely-litigated web patents, and a judgment of patent invalidity under § 101 against seven patents. He has also litigated class actions and criminal cases that have a technology-related focus. He has assisted numerous emerging and venture-funded companies across industry sectors.

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.

Cir. 2012)) in a decision that established a new standard for “fame” in trademark dilution cases;

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.
