Morgan Chu has secured many of the world’s largest — and in some cases precedent-setting — verdicts, judgments and settlements, resulting in actual payments totaling more than $9 billion. His decades-long career stands apart for its impact and influence. Defense representations have comprised an equal share of his career, and he has scored a series of wins that have been named top defense verdicts of the year. In just the past year, Chu has obtained nearly $3.3 billion in awards for VLSI Technology in patent trials against Intel involving microprocessor technology. In November 2022, he convinced a jury to award VLSI
$948 million plus running royalties, and in a separate case in April 2022, he secured a $2.3 billion judgment for VLSI – the largest patent judgment in US history. His strategy included ensuring that technical issues sur-rounding the infringement were easily understandable for jurors.
