Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton LLP continues to augment its team with the recent acquisition of an intellectual property (IP) lawyer from another law giant, Perkins Coie LLP. The yet unnamed attorney stands out as the third patent-focused litigator to depart from Perkins Coie within the same week.
This attorney will join the impressive roster of lawyers at Sheppard Mullin and contribute their expertise in handling complex IP cases. The American Lawyer National reports that Perkins Coie LLP, ranked as one of the Top 50 law firms nationally, is a considerable player in IP litigation, boasting a team of more than 200 lawyers in this field.
The hiring of this attorney supports Sheppard Mullin’s strategic growth and its drive to become a leader in providing IP-related services to its clientele. A track record of successful litigation coupled with IP expertise makes this attorney a value-added asset to the company. The move also signifies the dynamic shifting of lawyers between top-ranking law firms in the bid to consolidate the best talent.
