Christopher Larus Named to Shortlist of Outstanding US Intellectual Property Litigators

We are pleased to announce that Christopher Larus, Chair of the Minneapolis IP and Technology Litigation Group at Robins Kaplan LLP, has been named to Managing Intellectual Property’s 2018 shortlist of Outstanding US Intellectual Property Litigators. He is one of just six Minnesota lawyers to receive this recognition.

The shortlists for the Managing IP Awards are based on research conducted for the 2018 edition of IP Stars, a guide to IP firms and practitioners worldwide. Shortlist candidates are chosen based on nominations sent by firms contacted for IP Stars research, as well as interview notes, survey submissions, and Managing Intellectual Property’s own independent research.

For more than 25 years, Larus has helped leading technology companies protect and monetize their intellectual property. He tries complex patent, trade secret, trademark, and copyright and licensing dispute cases in courts throughout the United States in both national and international arbitration. He led the development of Robins Kaplan’s Pinpoint IP™ patent analytic software, which provides clients data-driven inputs to assist in identifying patent assets most likely to drive substantial value in licensing and enforcement.

Larus has previously been named an Intellectual Property Trailblazer by The National Law Journal. He has also been named to the 2017 “IAM Strategy 300: The World’s Leading IP Strategists” list and to Managing Intellectual Property’s list of Patent Stars and Trademark Stars.
