Mark Hatch-Miller, a graduate of the Yale Law School and a former law clerk to two federal judges, is one of the country’s top trial and appellate attorneys.

Mark has extensive standup trial and arbitration experience, including serving as co-lead counsel in an $86 million patent infringement jury trial where he won a take-nothing verdict for the defendant. Mark has represented clients ranging from Fortune 500 companies, such as Walmart and Nasdaq; to Dominion Voting Systems in its defamation lawsuits against Fox News and others; to smaller businesses and individuals.

Mark practices in a wide range of subject-matter areas, including patent infringement, trade secrets misappropriation, defamation, contracts and general commercial disputes, construction/real estate, qui tam/false claims, antitrust, securities fraud, and product liability, among other areas. He has handled pro bono matters ranging from an individual employment discrimination dispute to authoring an amicus brief filed in a high-profile Supreme Court case.

Whether through trial verdicts or arbitration awards, via pre-trial motion wins, or through favorable settlements, Mark regularly secures results for his clients.

Mark served as co-lead trial counsel for defendant Globus Medical, Inc., a medical device manufacturer, in an $86 million patent infringement dispute in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Early in the case, Mark helped win a rare transfer of the case out of the Western District of Texas to Globus’s home district. At trial, Mark delivered the opening statement for Globus, presented Globus’s first witness, and won a complete victory for the defendant. The jury found that not even one of ten accused Globus products infringed a single one of plaintiff’s three asserted patents. The plaintiff, a business owned by a Maryland doctor and his family, was represented by the #1 patent litigation firm in the United States.

Mark previously won another take-nothing defense verdict for Globus, in an earlier patent infringement dispute in the Eastern District of Texas. Mark also obtained several key pre-verdict wins in the case, including on summary judgment motions and motions to limit expert testimony.

Mark helped secure a historic $787.5 million deal for Dominion Voting Systems to resolve a $1.6 billion lawsuit it brought against Fox News and Fox Corporation over claims that Fox News and its commentators relentlessly stated that Dominion’s voting machines were at the center of a vast conspiracy in the 2020 presidential election. Mark was an instrumental trial team member – he led efforts on deposing Fox News hosts and show producers, eliciting information that was critical to the landmark outcome. Mark is now litigating similar cases on behalf of Dominion against Rudy Giuliani, Mike Lindell, MyPillow, Sidney Powell, One American News Network, and Newsmax.
