About Us

Budwin, Kamprath, Burgess & Campbell brings together four founding shareholders with complementary strengths in patent trial work. With a combined nearly 80 years of experience, we have tried complex intellectual property cases in federal courts nationwide as well as before the International Trade Commission in Washington, D.C. Our cases frequently include parallel international assertions in foreign jurisdictions such as the Unified Patent Court, Germany, the United Kingdom, and Brazil. Each principal spent years at a well-regarded national IP trial firm and has handled some of the most significant patent matters of the past two decades involving cellular standards, video encoding, RF and digital hardware, high-performance memory, medical devices, and software. Collective results include numerous nine-figure verdicts, many successful ITC exclusion orders, numerous favorable licensing resolutions, substantial defense wins, and one of the largest settlements ever obtained on behalf of the State of Texas.

Our approach emphasizes deep technical fluency—rooted in advanced engineering degrees, Ph.D.-level expertise, and industry experience-paired with first-chair trial capability on both the plaintiff and defense sides. We develop global litigation and licensing strategies that protect and monetize valuable patent portfolios or defend against assertions, providing clients with efficient, high-impact advocacy. Based in Texas with strong roots in Austin, Dallas, and Marshall, Texas, we serve innovators, patent owners, and technology companies who need trial lawyers capable of handling the most demanding intellectual property disputes across the United States and abroad.
