Matthew Blair is an associate and a member of the firm's Intellectual Property Litigation practice group. With a background in physics, Matthew brings genuine technical fluency to complex patent disputes, having worked across a broad range of technologies including life sciences, immersion cooling, computer bus standards, cable internet/television, photovoltaic systems, and 4G and 5G cellular networks. That background, paired with first-hand trial experience, allows him to translate dense technical records into clear, persuasive arguments for judges and juries.

REPRESENTATIVE EXPERIENCE

Prior to joining the firm, Matthew practiced patent litigation at another international firm, representing both plaintiffs and defendants in patent litigation and breach-of-license disputes. At K&L Gates, Matthew has continued building that practice while expanding into patent post-grant proceedings, International Trade Commission investigations, and trademark and trade secret litigation.
