P. Anthony Sammi joins Latham & Watkins in New York

P. Anthony Sammi has joined Latham & Watkins in New York as a partner in the firm’s litigation and trial department and as a global vice chair of the intellectual property litigation practice. Sammi is a first chair trial lawyer with extensive experience in tech whose practice includes patent, trade secrets, trademark and copyright matters.

“Tony has a well-earned reputation as a powerhouse IP lawyer, with an excellent track record both in and out of the courtroom,” said David Callahan, global chair of Latham’s IP litigation practice. “He’s a welcome addition who will blend seamlessly with our talented IP litigation team.”

Sammi represents clients across a variety of technologies, including video games, oil and gas, software, healthcare, telecommunications, consumer goods, and pharmaceuticals, on a full spectrum of patent and IP matters. In addition to his work before district and appellate courts, he has led trials before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board. Sammi also counsels US and multinational clients on evaluating, licensing, and protecting intellectual property portfolios.

Marc Jaffe, office managing partner of Latham & Watkins in New York, said: “We’re extremely pleased to welcome another dynamic, first chair trial lawyer to the team. Whether on matters here in New York, or anywhere around the globe, Tony is a fantastic addition to a team which, by every measure, is leading in an intense and competitive market.” 

Sammi follows the arrivals of leading life sciences trial lawyers Arlene Chow and Ernest Yakob in New York last summer.
