Job Description

Job Description

As a mid-level associate, you’ll litigate cutting-edge patent and trade secret disputes involving AI, semiconductors, hardware, and frontier technologies—alongside a team that trains intentionally and values courtroom experience, not just memo-writing.

Join a nationally ranked IP litigation group with a real commitment to associate development. You’ll take ownership of sophisticated matters, develop strategy in real-time, and benefit from a career framework that’s as transparent as it is ambitious.

Why This Role Catalyzes Your Growth

Hard Tech, High Impact:

You’ll work with a docket spanning semiconductor design, machine learning, autonomous systems, and networking infrastructure—representing industry leaders and emerging unicorns alike.

You Won’t Sit on the Sidelines:

From oral argument to claim construction, associates are expected—and supported—to take depositions, draft key filings, and help steer case strategy.

National Presence, Collaborative Culture:

With offices coast to coast, this isn’t a fiefdom model. Associates regularly collaborate across geographies with partners who publish, teach, and actually mentor. It’s high performance without the attitude.

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • 3–5 years of experience in patent litigation and/or trade secret litigation
  • Undergraduate degree in computer science, electrical engineering, physics, or mathematics (required)
  • Strong research, writing, and advocacy skills
  • Experience handling client communications and contributing to strategy
  • Admitted to the bar in the jurisdiction of the office (NY, CA, DC, TX, CO, or MA preferred)

Perks

  • Benefits: Industry-leading parental leave, fertility/adoption support, robust health coverage, in-house pro bono counsel, Calm/Talkspace access, and more
  • Work Model: Flexibility supported; culture leans toward high trust, not face time
