Sterne Kessler’s PTAB Co-Chairs were joined by Counsel Melissa Haapala and Director Jennifer Chagnon for the first session in our exclusive monthly roundtable series. Melissa was most recently a Vice Chief Administrative Patent Judge at the PTAB and Jennifer is a former Lead Administrative Patent Judge.

Designed for in-house counsel and corporate executives, this session provided timely updates on the latest developments at the PTAB, including key statistics, recent trends, and strategic insights on discretionary denial decisions. To help shape the discussion, attendees were encouraged to submit questions in advance through the webinar registration page or by sending us an email.

Future webinars will continue to be hosted on the third Wednesday of each month, with the next program scheduled for Wednesday, June 18, 2025, at 1 p.m. (EDT).

Continuing Legal Education Credits: General CLE credit is pending for VA, CA, TX, and IL. CLE will only be offered for live viewing.
