It doesn't matter if you're likely to win if you can't afford to litigate. > it shouldn't be that hard to find competent lawyers willing to work on contingency

It doesn't matter if you're likely to win if you can't afford to litigate.
> it shouldn't be that hard to find competent lawyers willing to work on contingency to take meaningful patent case
Yeah, that's why it happens all the time. (hint, it doesn't).
- bunderbunder 13y agoY'know, it's becoming increasingly common in patent law, and the trend is disturbingly closely related to the rise of patent trolling. The oversupply of lawyers in the USA has become so great that many attorneys will take on anything at this point, including patent cases on contingency. And that makes it easy for businesses to hop on board, since the cost to them is so low.
