In recent developments in the legal industry, Lewis Brisbois Bisgaard &Smith LLP has extended its team by employing an intellectual property attorney from Robins Kaplan LLP for their Minneapolis office. The new hire is expected to strengthen the firm’s patent portfolio and extend their litigation capabilities.
In a similar vein, Goodwin Procter LLP also confirmed they have on-boarded the co-chair of Perkins Coie LLP’s post-grant practice. The newly appointed partner will play a key role in the firm’s intellectual property litigation department.
The moves are part of ongoing shifts within the legal profession, as firms are strategically bolstering their teams with experienced attorneys and established industry professionals. As the demand for intellectual property law service continues to increase, more legal professionals are specializing in this field.
