Matan Shacham represents clients in a range of litigation matters, including intellectual property, breach of contract, professional negligence, and criminal defense.
Cases of Note
Broadcom Corporation, et al. v. Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation: We represent Broadcom and are leading a joint-defense group consisting of wireless chip manufacturers, PC manufacturers, and cellular network carriers against the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, which asserts that its patent claims cover a wide variety of products that offer wireless functionality under the IEEE 802.11 standard for local area networks.
Plaintiff v. Software Company: We defended a leading enterprise and mobile software company against breach of contract and related claims. The foreign plaintiff alleged he had entered into a joint venture with a company subsequently acquired by our client. We quickly mastered the facts and documents in the case, pushed for early depositions of the key witnesses and an expedited resolution through arbitration, and thus were able to secure a favorable settlement.
