Ms. Rose has extensive experience litigating intellectual property disputes in trial and appellate courts.  Her practice focuses on trademark, trade dress, copyright, false advertising, rights of publicity and privacy disputes.  Ms. Rose also practices before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board of the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

Ms. Rose’s practice often involves cutting-edge issues in copyright and trademark law. For example, Ms. Rose recently represented Charter Communications in a trio of cases brought by the music industry alleging that Charter should be liable for copyright infringement allegedly committed by customers who use its service to connect to the Internet.  In Capital Records, LLC v. Vimeo, LLC, Ms. Rose represented video-sharing platform Vimeo and established that the Digital Millennium Copyright Act’s “safe harbor” provision shields websites like Vimeo from liability when users post videos that include pre-1972 sounds recordings.  In Pro-Football, Inc. v. Blackhorse , Ms. Rose represented the Washington Redskins and argued that Section 2(a) of the Lanham Act—which prohibits the registration of trademarks that “may disparage”—is unconstitutional.  (The Supreme Court ultimately struck down this provision of the Lanham Act in another case. ) In Apple, Inc. v. Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. ,Ms. Rose was part of the Quinn Emanuel team that litigated hotly-disputed questions concerning the proper scope of protection for the iPhone product configuration trade dress, among many other issues.
