He has extensive experience litigating complex patent disputes in federal courts, the International Trade Commission (ITC), and related proceedings.

He also brings deep experience at the intersection of intellectual property and antitrust law, including the defense of Walker Process claims.

Mr. Bellin regularly represents leading pharmaceutical and life sciences companies in high-stakes patent infringement and Hatch-Waxman litigation. His experience includes representing GlaxoSmithKline in Hatch-Waxman litigation involving the BREO ELLIPTA® inhaler product, and defending Johnson & Johnson against class-action Walker Process antitrust claims related to the monoclonal antibody Stelara, in which the district court granted summary judgment on a motion for reconsideration on the eve of trial.
