LexData-driven Hatch-Waxman ANDA rankings — coming 2026.
Hatch-Waxman ANDA litigation rankings covering brand and generic representation across the full lifecycle of Paragraph IV disputes. Built on PACER docket data, FDA Orange Book, and FDA approval records. The first edition publishes in 2026.
Methodology in draft. First edition: 2026.
Built on PACER + FDA Orange Book.
Every signal is computed from PACER court records, FDA Orange Book patent listings, and FDA generic approval records. Brand and generic counsel are tracked separately, with 30-month stay clocks, settlement timing, and launch outcomes all extracted.
Ranked on activity. Measured on performance.
Six performance signals across both brand and generic representation. Hatch-Waxman has its own rhythm — Paragraph IV certifications, 30-month stays, settlement timing, at-risk launches — and signals reflect that.
ANDA case volume
Weighted participation across brand- and generic-side Paragraph IV disputes.
Outcome by phase
Win rates across Markman, dispositive motions, trial, and post-trial — on validity and infringement separately.
30-month stay strategy
How counsel manages the statutory stay clock — settlement timing, MDL coordination, multi-defendant strategy.
Settlement timing & structure
Pre-trial settlement rate and the timing and structure of agreed entry dates and royalties.
Generic launch outcomes
Generic-side: launch authorization, 180-day exclusivity capture, at-risk launches and their outcomes.
Portfolio & molecule breadth
Therapeutic area and molecule diversity — specialist versus generalist Hatch-Waxman practice.
Rankings backed by the public record.
Most rankings ask you to make a case for yourself. We already have the evidence.
