HOUSTON, April 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The highly regarded Chambers USA guide named Heim, Payne & Chorush among the nation's best legal teams for intellectual property litigation and singled out firm co-founders Mike Heim and Leslie Payne for individual honors based on their patent litigation expertise.

Mr. Heim and Mr. Payne are also ranked individually by Chambers USA. Together and individually, they have led litigation teams in complex patent disputes that have produced record verdicts and settlements. In addition, the two are active in matters before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit and in inter partes review proceedings at the PTAB.

Clients described Mr. Heim as "an excellent and experienced lawyer" and "a smart person who gets into the details of the matters and does excellent work."
