`Roger G. Brooks is a partner in Cravath’s Litigation Department.
`His practice covers a wide range of courtroom litigation for

`As lead counsel representing the world’s preeminent cellular
`technology development and licensing company, Qualcomm Inc.,
`Mr. Brooks won the dismissal of an antitrust action in Mississippi
`federal court arising out of the development of the 4G LTE
`international cellular standard and obtained a favorable settlement of
`a similar action against Qualcomm in Pennsylvania federal court.
`Mr. Brooks also obtained the dismissal of an antitrust lawsuit
`brought by Broadcom that sought to have many of Qualcomm’s
`patents declared unenforceable and advises concerning competition
`law proceedings in both European and Asian jurisdictions and on
`antitrust compliance.
`
`Mr. Brooks is an expert in licensing and competition law issues
`relating to standardized technologies and so-called “FRAND”
`licensing, and was lead counsel for Qualcomm in a licensing dispute
`against Nokia that resulted in a multibillion-dollar settlement
`payment to Qualcomm, as well as in private arbitrations concerning
`licensing disputes.
`
`Mr. Brooks’ patent representations have included:
`
` Served as lead counsel for Qualcomm successfully
`defending against patent claims directed against GPS
`functionality in cellular phones.
`
` Secured a trial victory for Mylan in a Paragraph IV
`pharmaceutical patent infringement case against Teva and
