Remedies for Patent Infringement

Remedies in patent infringement cases can include:

• Monetary Damages: Monetary damages are designed to make the patent-owner financially “whole.” These may include reimbursements for lost sales on patented items, depressed prices, lost royalty payments, and sometimes even lost sales on larger items of which the patented product is an integral part.
• Injunctive Relief: Injunctive relief is designed to prevent the accused potential infringer from making, using or selling the potentially infringing product.
• Enhanced Damages for Willful Infringement: Patent holders may be entitled to treble (triple) damages, punitive damages and reimbursement for legal fees if the patent infringement is found to be particularly willful, reckless or egregious.
