Bringing her skills to bear, Sybil successfully leads teams in litigations around the country.

Sybil’s experience includes representing Fortune 100 companies as they navigate disputes with contractors, clients, and business partners, including breach of contract, business torts, and post-closing disputes involving net working capital. She also helps clients evaluate, assess, and litigate intellectual property disputes from initial risk assessment through trial and appeal. As part of her IP practice, she represents clients before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board, including the first patent owner to score a complete victory in a Covered Business Method (CBM) proceeding.
