Our runners up for Litigator of the Week  include Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan’s Sean Pak and Dave Nelson, who scored a significant win at the International Trade Commission on behalf of Qualcomm.

An ITC administrative law judge found that Apple infringed one of Qualcomm’s patents and recommended an import ban on certain iPhones—a ruling that if upheld by the full commission will provide key leverage for Qualcomm as the fight continues.
