Professional Profile

Megan brings a unique and unconventional approach to her cases by providing her clients amazing service and, most importantly, winning results. Her winning results are evident from her record, a sampling is below:

  • Sphero v. Spin Master – defeated a motion for preliminary injunction in a patent infringement case against Spin Master where the Plaintiff sought to prevent the sale of a Star Wars BB-8 toy during the Christmas season.
  • Winters v. PACCAR – overcame Plaintiff’s asserted IP claims against PACCAR and countersued to enforce PACCAR’s own IP counterclaims. The case settled in PACCAR’s favor to the tune of millions of dollars.
  • Rehco v. Spin Master – prevailed in defeating a motion for preliminary injunction against Spin Master, followed by a summary judgment win on both patent and contract claims.
  • Unlioc v. Electronic Arts, Ubisoft, and 5 other game developers- prevailed in an IPR proceeding by invalidating the asserted claims and then successfully defeated a motion to amend to add new claims not previously asserted before the IPR filing.
  • Garmin v. PhatRat – prevailed in an arbitration for Garmin regarding breach of contract claims related to a patent license and obtained an award of attorneys’ fees.
  • ADC v. Sony – prevailed in five patent office proceedings and invalidated nearly all patent claims for Sony, which resulted in a nominal settlement.
  • Icon v. Garmin- prevailed in defeating plaintiff’s allegations of patent infringement against Garmin through motions to dismiss based on 101.
  • Elkin v. Cerner- obtained a directed verdict for Cerner in connection with Elkin’s various claims of copyright infringement.

Megan’s litigation philosophy focuses on developing strategies to terminate cases quickly while, at the same time, preparing each case for trial from the outset should that need arise. The client’s business objectives are always at the forefront of Megan’s practice, leading to an emphasis on case management efficiency and client service.  Megan’s clients are in multiple technology areas, including toys, GPS technology, consumer electronics, digital rights management, video games and systems, e-commerce, and multiple aspects of data network technology and testing.
