Intellectual Property Partner

Career Renew is recruiting for one of its clients an Intellectual Property Partner - this is a fully remote role for US-based candidates.

Our client is a highly selective entrepreneurial firm that combines the dynamic client service, teamwork and agility of a high-end boutique law firm with the deep multidisciplinary experience of a large global firm. Their clients consistently receive exceptional representation across twelve countries and five continents, from their all-star team of corporate, litigation, tax, intellectual property, entertainment, and private client attorneys.

Their consistent excellence, commitment to the community, and innovation have been internationally recognized, including by Harvard Law School, Stanford Law School, Chambers, Best Lawyers, Super Lawyers, the Financial Times Innovation awards, the Atlantic, the American Bar Association's Legal Rebels, the Economist, the Recorder, and many more.

Their clients range from cutting edge technology startups to financial institutions and Fortune 100 companies.

They are seeking an Intellectual Property Partner to further expand and strengthen their IP platform. The firm is open to partners whose practices focus on patent prosecution, patent litigation, or a combination of both, as well as IP-driven counseling and strategy.

This role is designed for a partner who already has an established practice and wants to grow within a firm that actively supports IP work, rather than treating it as a loss leader or ancillary service.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and grow a partner-level IP practice
• Handle sophisticated patent prosecution matters, patent litigation, or both
