"Duane Morris recently represented Topa Insurance Company, a property and casualty specialty insurer, in a major software defect case in Los Angeles. The trial team obtained favorable pre-trial rulings and guided the case toward trial, at which point the case settled on favorable terms. It not only was very helpful to Topa that the Duane Morris team demonstrated substantial trial skills and experience, but that it also provided a deep understanding of the technology at the heart of the case."

"LaserDynamics was founded to, among other things, license our patented method of disk discrimination which is used in most types of optical disk drives. Intellectual property is essential to our success – it is our business. When the world’s largest notebook computer manufacturer infringed one of our patents for disk discrimination, we needed lawyers who would understand not only the patent infringement issues but also the technology involved. Going to trial with Duane Morris turned out to be a winning strategy for us. Not only did our Duane Morris attorneys understand our technology, they also know how to use technology effectively at trial. It certainly paid off. We obtained a jury verdict of patent infringement in the Eastern District of Texas. In addition, we won a subsequent bench trial on a separate defense raised by the defendant and obtained a favorable finding by the judge." YASUO KAMATANI |

I rely on Duane Morris to deliver the only thing that matters—results. Without hesitation, I consistently turn to Duane Morris as my "go-to" firm for "bet-the-company" litigation as well as very necessary day-to-day legal counsel. I have had the good fortune to manage industry-leading Internet companies through rapid changes in law, technology and fundamental business operations. It is good to know that Duane Morris continues to stand ready to resolve any issue, on a global basis, that might distract Zynga from executing against our mission—"Connecting the World Through Games."

"I spent my first decade out of law school practicing with a great group of attorneys who taught me what it means to deliver legal excellence. The second decade of my career I worked at Yahoo!—where I directed the company’s litigation, virtual security and risk management efforts—which at the time, was the best-known brand and number-one destination on the Internet. Currently, I have
