The trial was held in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California.
KAS attorneys representing Plaintiff Guardant Health included Jennifer Keller and Chase Scolnick as co-lead trial counsel, along with KAS lawyers Craig Harbaugh and Greg Sergi, assisted by a team from A&O Shearman of Saul Perloff, Christopher LaVigne, Trey Herbert, Andre Hanson and Kathy Grant. Natera was represented by a team of partners from Quinn Emanuel Uruquart & Sullivan.
