Intellectual Property cases dealing with complex issues in patent, trademark and contract law can often overwhelm a jury and a judge. Using trial graphics to simplify the issues of the case helps you be very effective in persuading your audience on key issues and making important elements of your case easy to recall. Below are examples of trial graphics created by our consultants.
APU Load Compressor
This is an example of an APU Load Compressor for a Hamilton Sundstrand APS 3200. This type of trial graphics breaks down a complex mechanical process of how the APU Load Compressor functions in a jetliner. The case needed to show how the APS 2300 APU System works by visually explaining each part, then combining all of them together.
Miller ’998 Patent Obvious
The Miller ’998 Patent litigation matter involved a series of claims which were relating to the time frame and scope of a specific material. Symbolism was used to create a metaphor relating to those issues, example: the balloon and the puzzle piece.
Infringement – Reverse Engineering
There are multiple steps to be taken when inventing a new product. We visualized those steps through a flow chart and proceeded to emphasize the shortcuts that the opposing side had taken. We illustrated the experts’ analysis to show that reverse engineering was likely starting point for their product.
Divalproex Sodium – Patent
In this case we illustrated the mechanical process it took to manufacture their product.
Copyright Infringement
A family man in Washington designed a novelty wishbone. After approaching Sears with his wishbone concept, they took his idea and mass produced it elsewhere. We illustrated the forensic expert’s testimony comparing the two wishbones and used a “7 point match” to show the undeniable similarities.
