Denise De Mory is the managing partner and co-founder of Bunsow De Mory. She has litigated more than 150 patent and intellectual property cases in courts around the country, with significant stops in the major jurisdictions for patent litigation in California, Texas, and Delaware.
Denise thrives in the courtroom. She is an experienced trial lawyer with 11 cases tried to a verdict. One of these cases was the U.S. v. Microsoft antitrust litigation. Denise was a key player on the Justice Department’s team. After deposing executive-level Microsoft witnesses and the chief architect of Internet Explorer, Denise offered one of the government’s technical experts at trial.
She has also litigated dozens of inter partes review petitions before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board and briefed and argued before the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals many times.
Whatever the forum, Denise has the experience, expertise and savvy to achieve her client’s objectives. She often brings in significant settlements for her clients against law firms more than 50 times the size of Bunsow De Mory. That’s why universities, university professors, start-ups, and individual inventors rely on Denise’s strategic acumen to maximize the value of their IP.
In the past year, she has been ranked by Chambers USA for patent litigation, IAM 300 as a Strategy 300 Global Leader, Law Dragon as one of the Top 500 Litigators in America, Managing IP as a Global Top 250 Women in IP and an IP Star, the Daily Journal as a Top Woman Lawyer and as a Top IP Lawyer, and US News & Report as a Best Lawyer.
Denise enjoys traveling with her family, is a certified sewing instructor with a passion for costume design and construction and takes math classes (for fun!) in her spare time.
