   So, they won't represent IBM ?
   
   As far as I know IBM is the biggest patent troll on Earth.

   they probably appreciate the "patent trolls"

   No matter what they think about the rampant abuse of the patent system, it does create a demand for lots of lawyers for the abuse of the system, but at the same time creates a large demand for plenty of lawyers for the defense. The firm probably doesn't actually care about that issue, it's just smart marketing if you're targeting the defendants.

   Wasn't Verizon one of the 'patent trolls' that sued Vonage over VoIP patents?

   Proving yet once again that you know absolutely nothing of which you talk about; a patent troll is someone who collects patents and does no actual innovation.

    well 1st you should see whats the official definition for patent troll (i have a feeling you ll find lots of confliting ones)
    
    then see if Verizon applies.
    
    and then you u can try suing them for false advertising.
    
    good luck

    Congress is going after Patent Trolls

    

    notanonymouscoward, Mar 13th, 2008 @ 2:56pm

    
    

    Isn't Congress going after Patent Trolls in the Patent Reform bill being considered in the Senate? Sen. Diane Feinstein has specifically called out Patent Trolls in an amendment that would block them in some cases.

    Howery "Ad"

    

    MLS, Mar 13th, 2008 @ 4:41pm

    
    

    Nothing more than an advertisement that if you are sued by a "troll", then we are your kind of guys and gals to go to bat for you. Personally, I hate lawyer advertisements and would never use one. They remind me in a way of all the drug ads we see today on television and in print.
    
    What is a bit unsettling, though legal, is the obvious attempt to play off "Ghostbusters", and then to note that the play off "Troll Busters" is officially a service mark of the law firm. There was a time when trademarks were never used by law firms, and that included law firms specializing in patent, trademark, copyright and unfair competition law.
    
    My trademark views by law firms aside, my favorite is still Morrison Foerster's registration and use of the service mark "MoFo".
