Technology

Cravath is at the forefront of market and legal trends in the technology industry and represents many of the most highly regarded technology companies ranging from entrepreneurial startups to blue chip global corporations. Technology issues often touch upon a variety of practice areas, and our nimble, cross‑disciplinary team draws on deep experience—including a sophisticated understanding of next‑generation and disruptive technologies—to quickly and efficiently handle the many interrelated elements of a complex transaction or litigation.

Bringing together extensive legal expertise, technical knowledge and business judgment, we advise clients navigating the intersection of cutting‑edge technology and novel legal issues across industries and practice areas. This comprehensive focus allows us to provide a holistic approach to our clients’ most pressing—and often unprecedented—concerns, including with respect to artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain and digital assets, data analytics, financial and infrastructure technologies, mobile devices, robotics, software and open source, and the Web3 ecosystem.

Our corporate expertise includes traditional transactional matters—such as mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, financing transactions and governance considerations—as well as technology licensing and development transactions, strategic management of technology assets, and the establishment and optimization of technology development and commercialization programs. Our litigators have extensive experience with respect to patent, trade secret, antitrust, general commercial, securities and shareholder derivative litigation, as well as related advisory matters and investigations.

The transactions and cases we handle within the technology sector frequently involve complex intellectual property issues, often of major strategic and financial importance to our clients. We have expansive knowledge and experience with respect to these matters, including strategic counseling, portfolio development and licensing and other exploitation, and our team is well versed in navigating United States Patent and Trademark Office regulations. We also provide counsel with respect to the regulatory horizon, develop legal frameworks for data ownership and licensing, and handle the acquisition of data and AI technologies.

Our work in this space is routinely recognized by third-party publications, including Law360, which has named the Firm a Technology Practice Group of the Year, and New York Law Journal, which honored us with the “Innovation Award” for “creative and inspiring approaches and forward‑thinking firms.”

Gary Bornstein Named to Bloomberg Law’s Inaugural Unrivaled List

On June 25, 2025, Cravath partner Gary A. Bornstein was named to Bloomberg Law’s inaugural “Unrivaled” list, which recognizes 32 trial lawyers nationwide “who lead the legal profession in high-stakes and impactful trials and settlements.” The accompanying profile highlighted Gary’s representation of Epic Games in its successful antitrust litigation against Google, which has included victory in a jury trial determining Google engaged in anti-competitive behavior in the distribution of mobile apps and handling of in-app payments. Gary explained his trial strategy of “keeping it simple and letting the evidence speak for itself.” Gary also spoke about the importance of credibility in the courtroom, saying “judges and juries always spot inauthenticity, and they never forgive you when you breach their trust. We are advocates, but we cannot advocate effectively if our audience does not believe what we say.” Offering advice to young trial lawyers, Gary said: “Say yes. When opportunities arise, take them. Even if you think you’re not ready, grab the chance to learn. At the beginning of your career, every time you speak in court, you get better at it.”
