Section 337 investigations before the U.S. International Trade Commission move quickly and center on complex patent and technology disputes. The compressed schedule and technical nature of these matters place significant emphasis on expert testimony and the ability to explain sophisticated technologies clearly before the Administrative Law Judge.

Our experts include highly credentialed engineers, scientists, and industry executives whose experience spans advanced technologies and life sciences sectors frequently at issue in Section 337 investigations.
Proven Experience at the ITC
DOAR has supported attorneys in Section 337 investigations for decades, working alongside leading law firms and in-house counsel in technically complex matters before the Commission. We understand the pace, procedural demands, and strategic pressures that define this forum.
A strong ITC strategy is not simply about presenting facts. It requires disciplined organization of complex records, alignment of expert analysis, and clear presentation of technical arguments under demanding timelines. DOAR provides the structure and execution that complex ITC matters require.
Patent disputes before the ITC frequently hinge on sophisticated engineering and scientific concepts. Our experts and trial strategy consultants provide a clear explanation of these technologies through expert testimony and demonstrative presentations, which can be critical to the Administrative Law Judge’s understanding of the issues.
Evidentiary hearings move quickly and involve extensive technical records. Our consultants deliver a disciplined presentation of expert testimony and supporting demonstratives to ensure complex issues are communicated clearly and efficiently during the hearing.
Many ITC investigations proceed alongside related actions in district court or before the PTAB. DOAR can support counsel in maintaining consistency across themes, demonstratives, and presentation strategy, helping ensure alignment of technical positions and evidentiary narratives across forums.
