Our presenter:
Ashok leads the IP Litigation practice at his firm, and if you spend any time in the world of high-stakes intellectual property disputes, you know that’s serious territory. He’s a Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers, which is one of those honors that quietly signals, “Yes, this lawyer has truly seen the inside of the courtroom.”
Over the years, he has represented some of the most innovative companies on the planet, including Comcast, Magnolia Medical, OpenAI, Pfizer, and TSMC. Chambers USA and the Daily Journal consistently rank him among the country’s top IP trial lawyers. That reputation is built not on headlines, but on results.
For plaintiffs, Ashok has helped secure more than $800 million in collected judgments and settlement payments. Not just verdicts announced in court, but actual dollars recovered. For defendants, he has repeatedly achieved complete defense verdicts in cases where plaintiffs were asking for nine or even ten figures. In other words, he is very comfortable when the stakes are high and the spotlight is bright.
Beyond his courtroom work, Ashok also gives back to the profession and the community. He serves on the boards of Bay Legal and the Association of Business Trial Lawyers of Northern California.
