Lora served as counsel to antenna technology company and repeat Susman Godfrey client, Fractus SA, in a patent infringement case against ZTE Corp. Traversing the globe, Lora handled key depositions, both in the United States and abroad, and then briefed and won a motion to compel ZTE’s sales data and an opposition to a motion to strike. Fractus later agreed to settle its claims for a multi-million-dollar settlement.
