Our firm has a diverse and sophisticated client base, from large multinational corporations to start ups. We are trusted advisors to our clients, who rely on our expertise to provide them with the highest quality advice and to manage complex, worldwide portfolios. We therefore offer high quality and challenging work to candidates, along with a collegial work environment, competitive compensation and benefits.

The position will work with partners and senior associates of the firm, specifically with regard to domestic and foreign patent preparation and prosecution, freedom-to-operate and patentability analyses, researching and drafting legal opinions for clients, and assisting with patent office litigation matters.
