RJLF Honored as Law360’s 2024 Intellectual Property Group of the Year

Reichman Jorgensen Lehman & Feldberg LLP (RJLF), a national trial firm renowned for its remarkable litigation capabilities, has been honored as one of Law360’s 2024 Intellectual Property Groups of the Year. This prestigious recognition highlights RJLF’s significant contributions and achievements in the complex field of intellectual property law since its inception in 2018. Over these years, the firm has secured nearly $1 billion in verdicts and judgments, establishing itself as a force to be reckoned with in high-stakes IP litigation.

One of the firm’s defining moments came in August 2024, when it achieved a landmark $673 million total award for Kove IO against Amazon Web Services. The case included a staggering $525 million patent infringement verdict and an additional amount of $148 million in interest. This stunning outcome not only underscored the firm’s prowess in intellectual property matters but also reinforced its reputation for delivering exceptional results in intricate legal battles.

Additionally, Courtland Reichman and Christine Lehman were acknowledged as Law360 Intellectual Property MVPs for 2024, joining a select group of only seven IP litigators nationwide who earned this prestigious title. Such recognition speaks to their distinct expertise and dedication to the field, offering assurance to clients who seek top-tier representation in their legal endeavors.

The firm also celebrated a notable victory in October 2024, led by the accomplished partner Matthew Berkowitz, who represented Dawgs Footwear against Crocs in a high-profile legal dispute. This case, which exposed false patent claims, further cemented RJLF's reputation as a formidable trial firm reluctant to back down in the face of challenges from larger opponents.

In a remarkable display of creativity and advocacy, RJLF took on DC Comics and Marvel by representing Superbabies Ltd. in a trademark confrontation over the term “super hero.” The firm crafted a complaint designed to engage the public’s imagination—styled like a comic book—illustrating a storyline filled with heroes and drama, thus capturing the attention necessary in such a competitive landscape. Adam Adler, lead partner in this case, emphasized that their strategy reflects the firm’s innovative approach to litigation.

“Our wins reflect our identity as a trial firm,” stated Courtland Reichman, the founding partner of RJLF. “More than 50% of our docket is intellectual property, and we are proud of our growing reputation in this area.”

Christine Lehman, the Managing Partner at the Washington, D.C. office, affirmed RJLF’s commitment to its clients, recognizing the firm’s distinct approach within the legal landscape: “We knew there was something extraordinary happening, and it’s incredibly validating to see the fruits of our labor.”

RJLF’s history of triumph includes a $237 million verdict achieved in its very first trial while representing cloud infrastructure company Densify against VMware. Courtland Reichman reminisced about this significant win, noting, “We accomplished five years of litigation in just five months with our dedicated and passionate team.” Their tenacity shines a light on the firm’s ability to compete effectively against the largest law firms in the world.
