`
`Joe Herriges is a Principal in the Twin Cities Office of Fish & Richardson, where he focuses on high-stakes patent litigation in a variety
`of technology areas, including automotive technology, pharmaceuticals, polymers, and retroreflective optics.
`
`Joe has extensive stand-up experience in district court, including examining and cross-examining witnesses at trial, arguing for and
`securing preliminary injunctive relief, and successfully arguing at Markman and summary judgment on behalf of numerous clients. In
`addition to his district court experience, Joe leads teams in briefing before the Federal Circuit and has successfully presented
`arguments in that Court, including in a recent competitor case involving automotive technology where he argued for and secured
`affirmance of a complete invalidity ruling. Finally, Joe’s practice includes representing clients before the Patent Trial and Appeal
`Board, where he has led efforts from the petition stage through successful argument at Oral Hearing.
`
`Prior to joining the firm, Joe served as a law clerk to Judge Michael J. Melloy on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. At the
`University of Minnesota, he was a sprinter on the Big Ten Champion Minnesota swim team and was named Academic All Big Ten.
