Michael Rader, a shareholder in Wolf Greenfield’s Litigation Practice and co-chair of the firm’s New York office, has been named to the 2026 New York Super Lawyers list.
Mike represents the firm’s clients as lead counsel in intellectual property matters in district courts around the country, as well as before the International Trade Commission (ITC) and the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB). His disciplined approach to case management has enabled him to litigate successfully, and with great efficiency for his clients, against some of the largest law firms in the United States.
Mike is an experienced trial lawyer, having tried patent infringement, trade secret, and IP-related contract cases to verdict before juries and judges in jurisdictions including Delaware, Texas, California, Massachusetts, and before the ITC. He is sought-after for his ability to distill a complex case down to the most critical and persuasive themes and is a feared cross-examiner.
Super Lawyers recognizes outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. The selection process for both includes independent research, peer nominations, and peer evaluations.
