Chase Dietz advises clients on complex intellectual property matters, with an emphasis on patent preparation, prosecution and IP-driven transactions for cutting-edge technologies.
Chase has extensive experience dissecting patents and products in active infringement disputes. He routinely performs detailed claim analysis and infringement/non-infringement analyses, prepares element-by-element claim charts comparing accused products to asserted claims, and identifies gaps or weaknesses that inform early case assessments. Chase has supported trial teams in evaluating the strength of infringement and validity positions, contributed to drafting complaints and key motions, and worked closely with technical experts and in-house teams to develop litigation and settlement strategies anchored in the technical record and prior art.

Chase’s prosecution and strategy work complements his litigation support. He manages U.S. patent matters and coordinates foreign strategies (including EPO, CN, JP and PCT filings), handles office actions and examiner interviews, and advises on invention harvesting, portfolio development and freedom-to-operate. His experience building core patent families for AI and software companies gives him a practical sense of how strong portfolios are constructed—and how to attack them when his clients are sued.
