About

The Go-To Firm for Tech-Savvy Companies

Carlson Caspers is an intellectual property trial and strategy firm built for companies that compete on technology. We focus exclusively on IP—helping clients protect, enforce, and maximize the value of their innovations in high-stakes, technically complex matters.

Since our founding in 2003, we have earned a national reputation for handling sophisticated patent disputes and related IP matters for Fortune 500 companies, global innovators, and high-growth businesses. Clients rely on us when the issues are complex, the exposure is significant, and the outcome matters to the business.

Our advantage is straightforward: we combine trial experience and litigation savvy with true technical fluency. Our attorneys include engineers, scientists, chemists, and technologists who understand our clients’ products and industries without translation. That foundation allows us to develop sharper strategies, move efficiently, and focus on what drives results.

We are experienced trial lawyers. We litigate cases across the country, argue appeals before the Federal Circuit and other appellate courts, and represent clients before the USPTO. Just as importantly, we help clients make disciplined, business-aligned decisions at every stage—whether enforcing rights, defending against claims, or building and leveraging IP portfolios.

Our work spans industries where innovation is central, including medical devices, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, telecommunications, software, data privacy, and advanced manufacturing.

We are consistently recognized by Chambers USA, IAM Patent 1000, Best Lawyers, and Super Lawyers. More important to our clients, we bring judgment, efficiency, and credibility to matters where those qualities directly affect outcomes.

  • Efficient when it preserves value
  • Always grounded in the client’s business goals

From early-stage innovation through litigation, appeal, and commercialization, we work as an extension of our clients’ teams—delivering practical guidance in matters where legal strategy and business strategy are inseparable.
