Victoria’s intellectual property practice includes litigating patent infringement claims, trade secret disputes under the Uniform Trade Secrets Act and Defend Trade Secrets Act and related business torts. She has handled critical issues such as reverse engineering, independent development, source code disputes, analyzing competitor liability issues, and litigating patent infringement matters involving advanced technologies and innovations.
As part of the firm’s Financial Services group, Victoria frequently represents financial services institutions, bringing a deep understanding of the regulatory landscape and the challenges these entities face. Her experience includes disputes related to fair lending laws, originations, servicing issues, and compliance with consumer protection statutes.
Victoria helps clients with the initial analysis, negotiation, and, where necessary, subsequent litigation of a wide variety of complex commercial matters in state and federal trial and appellate courts in jurisdictions all over the country. Given her litigation experience, Victoria can offer clients a strategic and customized solution to successfully resolve any dispute—whether through trial, appeals, or a negotiated settlement. Sometimes leverage may be obtained through dispositive motion practice or limited discovery to posture disputes for early resolution, and other times, through alternative dispute resolution conferences, such as mediation or arbitration.
