The company won't hire law firms that take on patent troll cases, and its top lawyer, Lee Cheng, is vocal about his view that others should take the same approach.
Is there a site somewhere listing which firms represent patent trolls?
- dangoldin 14y agoI'm curious about this as well. If major companies started doing this it would strike a big blow to patent trolls.
- eksith 14y agoIf there is a site, it will need to keep changing almost weekly. Trolls are notorious for closing up shop and starting new companies with new names and hiding behind subsidiaries. Likewise legal offices that work with them are very tight-lipped. It's the software litigation equivalent of defending terrorists after all. If a name is sold to another company and the index hadn't been updated, the new company and name will be at risk for misdirected rage.
- nonamegiven 14y agoCan you imagine any large, resource-laden law firm refusing any business? It's business, and they're advocates for hire.
