Carra Rentie

Carra Rentie is a dynamic trial lawyer with significant experience in patent and complex commercial litigation, particularly in the technology and telecommunications sectors. In just four years of private practice, she has tried five cases and examined nine witnesses —an uncommon level of courtroom experience for her tenure.

Her recent representative matters include:

• Securing a $1.4 billion settlement for the State of Texas against Meta—at that time, the largest ever obtained by a single state.
• Representing Nokia in global patent and contract litigation against HP and Amazon.
• Advocating for a Texas city in a breach of contract dispute involving ERP implementation.

Other representations include Ericsson, Nokia, AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile.

Carra has been recognized in Patexia’s ITC Intelligence Report as a top performer representing complainants, and in 2025, she made her debut on the National Black Lawyers’ 40 Under 40 list.

She brings judicial insight from clerkships and internships with Chief Judge Leroy M. Not Afraid (Crow Tribal Courts), Judge Martin Hoffman (68th District Court, Dallas), Magistrate Judge Renee H. Toliver (N.D. Texas), and Judge Barbara Lynn (U.S. District Court, N.D. Texas).

• Ericsson. Represented Ericsson in reaching a settlement with Lenovo in a global patent licensing dispute involving a multi-year cross-license agreement, resulting in the withdrawal of all pending litigation and administrative proceedings, including before the USITC.
