Houston partner Wasif Qureshi was quoted in a Texas Lawyer article discussing Jackson Walker’s successful representation of Roku, Inc. in a $228 million patent trial.
In the article, Wasif said the team started trial expecting to defend against a $10 million claim based on a certain damages model. However, during the trial, ESW increased the number to $228 million.
“It’s hard to tell your client that a $10 million case has turned into a quarter-billion-dollar case,” Wasif said. “But it worked out.”
