Jeffrey A. Andrews and Natalie A. Gonzales partners at Yetter Coleman, have authored an article for Today’s General Counsel examining the changing dynamics of patent litigation and what those developments mean for businesses, patent owners, and accused infringers.
In the article, “The 2026 Patent Strategy Reset: What Both Sides Must Do Differently,” Gonzales and Andrews discuss significant shifts in the patent litigation landscape, including increased patent filings, changes in Patent Trial and Appeal Board activity, and the growing influence of artificial intelligence-related patent disputes. They also explore how these developments are affecting litigation strategy, risk assessment, and intellectual property planning.

The article offers practical considerations for organizations seeking to navigate an increasingly complex intellectual property landscape.
