Bloomberg has caught up with info that I published months ago (on April 25 to be exact) here at RelentlessFocus, namely, that Apple had hired a world class law firm specialising in IP law (Kirkland and Ellis). Apple’s team of lawyers at K&E is led by the leading IP lawyer Robert Krupka who has won many big IP cases.
So much for breaking news over at Bloomberg.
That Bloomberg article revealing Apple’s IP lawyers is mentioned by Florian Mueller in his excellent blog on IP matters called Foss Patents. Today’s blog entry at Foss Patents looks at the latest patent infringement filings by Apple (filed yesterday) in their IP battle with Motorola.
You’ll read about it on The Street, Seeking Alpha, CNBC, Forbes and other regurgitation sites soon.
