SK2X offers a wide variety of support services to attorneys from both law firms and in-house legal departments in matters involving electrical engineering. Our engineers have been active in developing technology for more than fifteen years, and have won accolades for their ability to explain engineering concepts to counsel and to juries.
Our main business is product design, so we limit the number of expert witness cases we accept. This policy maintains our credibility with jurors, and ensures that our engineers keep their design skills current.
Patent Litigation
SK2X's electrical engineers are familiar with the patent process and the technical contributions engineers make to the process. They have all been practicing engineers since the early to mid 1980's, so they also have a historical perspective on technology development.
Our extensive laboratory facilities are available for cases in which we are asked to analyze a product's operation to identify possible infringement or demonstrate prior art.
Patent litigation services offered include:
- technology tutoring and counseling
- reverse engineering
- prior art review
- expert report preparation
- testimony at depositions and at trial
Failure Analysis
As practicing engineers, we are constantly aware of design issues relating to product reliability and safety. We are interested in determining the causes of failure not only for the case, but also to learn lessons that may apply to our own design work.
In analyzing a failure, we employ the scientific method: observe, create a theory, use the theory to make predictions, and then test those predictions through experiment. We have found that a live experiment that re-creates a failure can be a highly effective courtroom demonstrative.
Our laboratory facilities allow us to perform engineering tests, construct breadboard models, and reproduce and document failure modes.
Failure Analysis services offered include:
- failure investigation, analysis and reconstruction
- reverse engineering
- design documentation review
- expert report preparation
- demonstrative preparation
- testimony at depositions and trial
