George Stamatopoulos is an experienced litigator and trial lawyer who serves as counsel in high-stakes, complex litigation. He has litigated cases through trial and/or successful settlement in areas that include patents, trade secrets, financial products and services, and government enforcement actions. Mr. Stamatopoulos’s extensive and deep experience in litigating patent and trade secret disputes covers a wide array of technologies, including mobile devices, network infrastructure, software and life sciences; and he enjoys the process of distilling complex technical concepts into compelling narratives and legal strategies suited for presentation at trial. His work on such matters has helped companies and individuals to monetize their intellectual property rights or to effectively defend against meritless claims brought against them.

Mr. Stamatopoulos has litigated cases before state and federal courts and the U.S. International Trade Commission. An effective and skilled advocate with experience in all phases of litigation, he routinely brings to bear his experience in technology-related matters and his background as an engineer to develop and execute effective and aggressive legal strategies and arguments, and debunk meritless expert opinions in disputes that touch upon a variety of areas, including complex financial products, deferred compensation, market manipulation, cryptocurrency, white-collar criminal defense and multi-jurisdiction asset tracing.

Before his legal career, Mr. Stamatopoulos worked as a structural engineer. He speaks Greek fluently.
