DALLAS, March 20, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Russ August & Kabat is pleased to announce the opening of its new Texas office space. Peter Tong will head the office.
"The firm is excited to expand into Texas with the opening of our Dallas office. We've had successful cases and trials in Texas for many years, so it is a natural progression for our firm. We are thrilled to have Peter Tong as the head of this office, working closely with Marc Fenster, Reza Mirzaie, and the entire RAK team," said Larry Russ, Founder and Managing Partner of Russ August & Kabat.
Peter Tong joined Russ August & Kabat as a partner after completing a clerkship with the Honorable Judge Alan D. Albright in the Western District of Texas. As Judge Albright's most experienced former clerk now in private practice, Mr. Tong looks forward to building a local counsel and patent plaintiff contingency practice.
With nearly a decade of patent litigation and prosecution experience, Mr. Tong brings a wealth of unique insight and technological understanding to any patent team. Mr. Tong has represented companies in numerous patent lawsuits and helped a client secure a jury verdict for hundreds of millions of dollars. He has won inter partes review (IPR) proceedings before the USPTO and matters for both plaintiffs and defendants before federal courts. Besides patent litigation, Mr. Tong has also handled cases regarding thefts of trade secrets and breaches of confidentiality.
Opening a Dallas office near the popular Texas venues in Waco and Marshall allows the firm to better serve its clients who frequently litigate there. Now that Delaware requires detailed finance disclosures from plaintiffs, Texas will become more important than ever. Russ August & Kabat also looks to grow its Texas presence through experienced lateral attorneys.
"I am proud to join this group of elite attorneys. RAK consistently impressed me while I was a clerk. They flexibly serve client needs without the bureaucracy or conflicts of biglaw firms. The firm also takes calculated risks on contingency cases at a time when other firms shy away from putting skin in the game," Mr. Tong explained.
The address of the new office is:
Russ August & Kabat
4925 Greenville Avenue, Suite 200
Dallas, Texas 75206
