Simpson Thacher & Bartlett has welcomed intellectual property (IP), privacy, and cybersecurity lawyer Marisa Geiger into its fold in their New York office. Formerly a counsel in Paul Weiss, Geiger has an established career in advising clients on the IP aspects of diverse transactions. This includes mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, carve outs, and spin-offs.
With a formidable track record, she boasts considerable experience in both structuring and negotiating standalone IP agreements. However, she is not only limited to these. Geiger’s prowess extends to privacy matters and cybersecurity – making her a versatile asset for any legal team.
It’s a noteworthy addition to the law firm. Especially so in this age where intellectual property is increasingly front-and-centre in law, business, and technology circles. Her arrival represents not just an acquisition of a highly competent IP lawyer, but an earnest acknowledgement of the evolving landscape where privacy and cybersecurity also play crucial roles.
