Job Responsibility:

  • Develop and manage client relationships across IP matters
  • Lead sophisticated transactional engagements from inception to completion
  • Collaborate with attorneys across practice groups on multidisciplinary matters

Requirements:

  • An experienced transactional IP attorney or group of transactional IP attorneys
  • Self-sustaining portable business (individually or as a group)
  • Excellent communication and client service abilities
  • 11+ Years experience
What we offer:
  • Flexible and creative compensation structures depending on the circumstances
  • Comprehensive benefits package
  • Flexible work arrangement
  • Strong platform for partner growth, including cross-selling across practice groups and associate support
