Summary: IP litigation attorney Brad R. Newberg joins McGuireWoods’ Intellectual Property Litigation and Patents Department today as a partner in Tysons Corner, Virginia, as the firm continues to boost its firepower in litigating copyright, trademark and digital rights disputes nationally and globally.
Newberg comes to McGuireWoods from the Falls Church, Virginia, office of Reed Smith, where he was lead attorney on many different intellectual property matters. In addition to his litigation work, he assists clients in navigating various laws that affect social media and other digital platforms. He also writes and speaks frequently on cutting-edge intellectual property issues and is an authoritative and widely sought source for journalists who cover high-profile copyright and trademark disputes, particularly those involving the media and entertainment industries.
He is the fifth partner to join McGuireWoods’ IP Litigation and Patents team this year, and his addition strengthens the team’s already formidable capabilities. Partners Darren Collins, Robert Hilton and Jason Cook joined McGuireWoods’ new Dallas office earlier this year, and life sciences partner Cedric Tan joined the firm’s Washington, D.C., office in July.
“Brad has been a first-chair litigator in dozens of copyright and trademark cases, and his experience across various industries improves an already strong team that is a tremendous asset for our clients,” said Brian C. Riopelle, chairman of the firm’s Intellectual Property Litigation and Patents Department.
