Intellectual Property Professionals
Our Intellectual Property (IP) focus provides tailored recruitment services to law firms and corporations looking for highly technical legal talent.
We leverage deep networks within the IP community to identify
Professionals with the specific scientific backgrounds (e.g., electrical engineering, life sciences) necessary to elevate your practice.
What We Do
Executive & Retained Search: Conduct priority, often confidential, searches for high-impact leadership roles such as Chief Patent Counsel, IP Partners, or General Counsel.
Specialized Sourcing: We identify both active and passive candidates, including Patent Attorneys, Trademark Counsels, and Patent Agents. Most candidates aren’t actively looking. That’s where we come in.
Deep-dive Analysis: We vet our referrals to make sure a candidate's scientific expertise alongside their legal credentials and cultural fit align with your needs.
Strategic Advisory Services
Practice Group Mergers: Facilitate the strategic move of entire IP practice groups from one firm to another.
Market Intelligence: Provide clients with data-driven insights on current salary benchmarks, hiring trends, and the competitive landscape for specialized IP talent.
We manage the entire negotiations process, acting as an intermediary for any and all sensitive and confidential discussions. This includes compensation & benefits and well as onboarding.
Candidates & Roles Served
We work with professionals across the full IP lifecycle, including:
Patent Prosecution & Litigation: Attorneys and agents who draft applications or defend IP rights in federal court or before the PTAB.
Trademark & Copyright: Experts in brand protection, registration, and enforcement.
Transactional IP: Professionals focused on licensing, technology transfer, and IP due diligence for M&A.
Our Track Record
From Fortune 500 corporations to high-growth FinTech startups, we have a proven history of placing legal executives who transform compliance from a "cost center" into a competitive advantage.
