In an article about the increase in intellectual property litigation in recent years, Ernie Brooks commented, “a pendulum swing in court rulings upholding patents that began in the mid-1960s helped propel interest and activity in intellectual- property litigation.”
“The practice continues to grow because American business is more attuned to risks and opportunities in patent situations . . . As this culture shift continues, most companies are on board and see that patents protect markets and they can use them to extract money from markets that are not as effective.”
