]]> Quoted in Law360: $32M Dentons Verdict Could Put Vereins In The Crosshairs https://mccabeali.com/in-the-news/quoted-in-law360-32m-dentons-verdict-could-put-vereins-in-the-crosshairs/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=quoted-in-law360-32m-dentons-verdict-could-put-vereins-in-the-crosshairs Tue, 25 Feb 2020 14:32:06 +0000 https://www.ipethicslaw.com/?post_type=speaking_engagements&p=11092 annie spratt jY9mXvA15W0 unsplashOn February 25, 2020, Michael E. McCabe, Jr. was quoted in Law360 (including IP360 and Legal Ethics360) in an article entitled “$32 million Dentons Verdict Could Put Vereins in the Crosshairs” by Aebra Coe.

The Law360 article addresses the ethical risks of the Swiss verein structure as it relates to conflicts of interest. The case involved a claim that Dentons committed legal malpractice arising from an alleged conflict of interest in an ITC proceeding, in which the firm was disqualified. Subsequently Dentons was sued for legal malpractice predicated on its conflict of interest. Dentons has filed post-trial motions seeking to avoid the verdict, and it also announced its plans to appeal the verdict.

McCabe, Jr. was quoted extensively in the lead feature story published on March 4, 2019 in Intellectual Property Law360 and Legal Ethics Law360 , entitled How Firms Can Avoid Conflicts Involving Corporate Affiliates (by Ryan Davis) (sub. req’d).   The Law360 article discusses the ethical risks faced by lawyers who represent an entity that has multiple affiliates and whether the lawyer’s representation of one entity in a corporate family precludes a representation adverse to other entities within the same corporate family.  The genesis of the article was the Federal Circuit’s February 8, 2019 decision and order disqualifying Katten Muchin Rosenman LLP in a patent case due to a conflict of interest involving affiliates of its client.

We discussed the issue of corporate affiliate conflicts, as well as the Federal Circuit’s decision disqualifying the Katten firm, in our recent post here.
