Mr. Eisenberg, a director in the Electronics Group, provides strategic counsel from a quarter century of patent experience gained before and after law school. As reported by Managing Intellectual Property, in 2016 Mr. Eisenberg made an appearance as counsel in 53 of his almost 140 proceedings at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) of the USPTO. In addition, he is both an editor and author of several chapters of the newly released Second Edition of Patent Office Litigation (Thomson Reuters, 2017). Mr. Eisenberg’s leadership at the PTAB belies the fact that he maintains a balanced practice and is much sought after for his keen abilities as a patent prosecutor and strategic management of global patent portfolios, for example specializing in the use of Reissue Practice to extend U.S. patent portfolios. Mr. Eisenberg is also a thought leader and has authored numerous articles, including a recent piece on strategic use of reissues and supplemental examination to cure issues raised in AIA proceedings, as well as articles on AIA proofing patents and obviousness strategies for patent owners.
