Anish Desai Email & Phone Number

I am Co-Head of Weil’s nationwide Patent Litigation practice and a first-chair trial lawyer with experience leading complex, competitor patent cases in federal courts and the U.S. International Trade Commission, as well as in arbitration proceedings. I have served as lead counsel in more than 100 IPR proceedings before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board, and successfully argued appeals before the Federal Circuit.Since 2021, I have been recognized by Legal 500 as a recommended lawyer for Patent Litigation, and in earlier editions I was recommended in the appellate space. I am currently named among The World’s Leading Patent Professionals for Patent Litigation in New York by IAM Patent 1000, which called me a “smart attorney who is excellent at simplifying technical detail for judges and juries and great on his feet.” I also previously have been recognized on Benchmark Litigation’s “40 & Under Hot List,” honored as “Best in Patent” by Euromoney in its “Americas Rising Stars Awards,” and identified as a Rising Star for Intellectual Property Litigation by DC Super Lawyers.
