Hatch-Miller practices in a wide range of subject-matter areas, including patent infringement, trade secrets misappropriation, defamation, contracts and general commercial disputes, construction/real estate, qui tam/false claims, antitrust, securities fraud, and product liability, among other areas. He has handled pro bono matters ranging from an individual employment discrimination dispute to authoring an amicus brief filed in a high-profile Supreme Court case.

Hatch-Miller served as co-lead trial counsel for defendant Globus Medical, Inc., a medical device manufacturer, in an $86 million patent infringement dispute in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Early in the case, Hatch-Miller helped win a rare transfer of the case out of the Western District of Texas to Globus’s home district. At trial, Hatch-Miller delivered the opening statement for Globus, presented Globus’s first witness, and won a complete victory for the defendant. The jury found that not a single one of ten accused Globus products infringed a single one of plaintiff’s three asserted patents. The plaintiff, a business owned by a Maryland doctor and his family, was represented by the #1 patent litigation firm in the United States.

Hatch-Miller also served as co-lead trial counsel for Globus as plaintiff in a patent infringement lawsuit in the District of Delaware. The case concerned competitor Life Spine’s infringement of patents covering Globus’s innovative expandable spinal fusion implant technologies. Mark delivered the opening statement for Globus. The jury awarded Globus $9.5 million in damages.

Hatch-Miller helped secure a historic $787.5 million deal for Dominion Voting Systems to resolve a $1.6 billion lawsuit it brought against Fox News and Fox Corporation over claims that Fox News and its commentators relentlessly stated that Dominion’s voting machines were at the center of a vast conspiracy in the 2020 presidential election. Hatch-Miller was an instrumental trial team member – he led efforts on deposing Fox News hosts and show producers, eliciting information that was critical to the landmark outcome. Hatch-Miller also played a significant role in securing Dominion’s  subsequent settlement with Newsmax.

Hatch-Miller obtained plaintiff-side summary judgment rulings against five different defendants for client YH Lex Estates, in New York state court actions seeking to collect on a nearly $20 million debt. Hatch-Miller initially won an early summary judgment ruling against one of the two guarantors of an unpaid real estate project-related loan. Hatch-Miller later won a unanimous summary judgment ruling on appeal against the real estate firm defendant and the other guarantor. Watch Hatch-Miller argue the appellate case here (start @23:19). Hatch-Miller also won decisive plaintiff-side summary judgment rulings against two related voidable transferee defendants, and later defeated thes defendants’ appeals from the voidable transfer judgments. 

Hatch-Miller secured a $19 million settlement (approximately $12 million after fees and expenses) for a class of plaintiffs in a New York federal court price-fixing case against Coach USA Inc. and City Sights LLC, providers of “hop-on, hop-off” double-decker bus tours of New York City.
