His experience spans a broad range of technologies, including helicopter avionics displays, hybrid vehicle controls, train control systems, power wheelchair suspensions, machine vision software, power-over-Ethernet technology, and power tool battery systems.
Bittman has played key roles in several significant trials in the last few years, including cases involving trade secret misappropriation and patent infringement at the International Trade Commission and in Texas state court.
“Scott is a highly accomplished trial lawyer and IP strategist with an impressive track record in complex patent and trade secret disputes,” said Oren Langer, Managing Partner of the New York office. “His deep technical knowledge and courtroom success further strengthen our nationally recognized intellectual property litigation team and enhance our ability to serve clients facing sophisticated technology disputes.”

I look forward to helping clients protect and defend their most valuable innovations.”
