About Jonathan E. Giroux

Jonathan E. Giroux is an experienced intellectual property attorney whose practice covers patent prosecution, IP transactions, and IP litigation. He helps clients - from Fortune 50 enterprises and multinational corporations to mid-sized companies and startups - develop and implement effective intellectual property protection strategies aligned with their business goals.

Jon has significant experience in patent prosecution for advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence, machine learning, backend computing, FinTech, electrical devices, and mechanical devices. He manages U.S. and international patent portfolios, guiding clients through the entire patent application process. He develops tailored patent filing strategies and seeks to ensure that the scope of protection supports each client's commercial objectives, strengthening their competitive advantage.

In his IP transactions practice, Jon represents both licensors and licensees in drafting and negotiating technology licenses across a range of industries. He is skilled in structuring technology licensing agreements that address specific business needs, and he works to efficiently achieve mutually beneficial outcomes. He also conducts IP due diligence for mergers and acquisitions, helping buyers and sellers evaluate and secure intellectual property assets in corporate transactions of all sizes.

Jon’s intellectual property litigation practice includes representing clients in competitor disputes and defending against non-practicing entities (NPEs or patent trolls). He has litigated complex cases involving technologies such as consumer electronics, linear actuators, data transmission protocols, cybersecurity, automotive safety systems, and business method patents (including electronic check routing, mass marketing, and banking transactions). His litigation strategies are designed to protect clients' IP rights and support their broader business interests.

Committed to understanding each client’s technology and business landscape, Jon proactively identifies IP risks and opportunities in product development, operational changes, and emerging technologies. He provides practical, business-focused legal counsel to help clients maximize the value of their intellectual property assets.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
