Harnessing the full bench strength of a disputes firm spanning four continents, the intellectual team at Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, LLP manages and protects – through high-stakes litigation – the international copyright portfolios of household names in entertainment and tech, such as Vimeo, Spotify, and X (Twitter). The team is headed by an experienced group of partners: in New York, by veteran commercial litigator and international arbitrator Rachel Epstein and Todd Anten, who recently secured a victory for video-hosting website Vimeo against copyright infringement claims brought by major record labels on safe-harbor grounds under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act; Dan Posner in Los Angeles, who acts on behalf of both plaintiffs and defendants at the trial court and appellate levels; and Margret Caruso in Silicon Valley, a specialist in infringement actions concerning design, biochemical, computer, and mechanical patents. Jodie Cheng in San Francisco was promoted to partner January 2024.
