IP RECRUITER GROUP Is Recruiting For The Following Opportunity:
Our client, a highly-regarded law firm, is looking for a partner-track patent attorney associate. This is an established but progressive firm that has been experiencing steady growth.
The work relates to patent preparation and prosecution, patent opinions (patentability, freedom to operate, validity, infringement, enforceability), and due diligence relating to US patents. This will include primarily US based clients, but will also include some work for foreign clients needing prosecution in the US. Since this firm also deals with foreign filings, any international experience would be a plus. Most importantly, since you will deal with clients at all levels, thus you must have excellent verbal and written communication skills.
Requirements:
- Minimum BS in Engineering (e.g. mechanical, biomedical, materials, electrical, aeronautical, nuclear, chemical) or Physics, with an MS or PhD being highly valued.
- Prior engineering experience would also be a big plus.
- JD, State Bar, USPTO Bar with a solid academic background
- A least 2 years of full time patent drafting and prosecution experience within a respected law firm.
Must be able to work cooperatively in a team environment. This firm also encourages and incentivizes associates to contribute to the expansion of the practice, thus your strong client skills could be well leveraged here. Fluency in other languages is certainly not required, but if you have strong fluency in another language (e.g., Japanese, Korean, German, Russian, or French), you would have the opportunity to leverage that here as well.
Relevant Terms: patent, IP, intellectual property, law firm, associate, attorney, lawyer, counsel, agent, electrical, mechanical engineer, chemical, electromechanical, biomedical engineering, materials, aerospace, computer science, software engineering, electronics, control systems, physics, optics, optical, telecommunications, computer networking, USPTO, PTAB, trademarks, mechanical design patents, law firm jobs, salaries, salary, pay, compensation, agency, agencies, job, legal search firm, law firm recruiting, recruiter, recruitment, top recruiters, best headhunters, headhunter, list, hiring trends, positions, openings, postings online, patent counsel, patent lawyer, patent associate, patents, patent law, firms, Washington, DC attorney, Northern Virginia, VA, East Coast

All fees are paid by client firms and companies. As a consequence of our reputation for having integrity and providing results,
we often work on exclusive assignments that are not advertised.
