Newman Du Wors LLP
As a law firm focused on business, technology, internet, advertising and intellectual property law, Newman Du Wors is based in Seattle, Washington. Our team of attorneys are licensed to practice before state, appellate and federal courts across the country, including before the U.S. Supreme Court. Some of our cases have been international in scope.
With more than a dozen attorneys on our team, we have the breadth and depth of experience to offer business and commercial clients a range of customized solutions and advise them on which courses of action will get them to the outcomes they desire. Even so, the firm is small enough to stay focused on each of its clients, whether their needs are simple or complex.
Clients often turn to us for assistance with copyrights, patents, trademarks, trade secrets, technology transactions and noncompete agreements, and we represent or defend clients in intellectual property litigation. Counsel on business and compliance matters frequently involves antitrust laws, transactions, email marketing, media, advertising, and mergers and acquisitions. In just six months, our law firm has completed merger and acquisition transactions valued at more than $300 million.
Attorney Derek Newman often represents clients in high-stakes intellectual property and internet litigation, as well as negotiating for multimillion-dollar settlements and winning multimillion-dollar verdicts in court. He has provided advice, support and representation for clients appearing before Congress and the federal Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, among others. Attorney John Du Wors has won significant cases for clients with issues involving e-commerce, as well as advertising regulation, cellphone communications, intellectual property and employment law. He also has successfully protected clients against class action litigation.
In addition to representing and advising clients in the business, arts and education communities, our attorneys have also made their own contributions through teaching, journalism, music, ballet and more.
