Litigation Associate - Senior-Level

Leason Ellis is an established IP boutique law firm headquartered in White Plains, New York.  We launched in 2008, and now house over 30 patent, trademark, and copyright attorneys under our roof.  We are one of only four firms listed in the IAM Patent 1000 New York section recommended on each of the prosecution, litigation and transactions tables.

QUALIFICATIONS

You are an outstanding senior-level attorney with about six to nine plus years of experience handling contentious work under your belt. You understand the ins-and-outs of federal court litigation and have a demonstrable interest in intellectual property law. Your litigation experience to date includes drafting pleadings, engaging in motion practice, handling discovery matters, and possibly spending some time in a courtroom. You possess writing skills that impress, a reasonable degree of confidence, plenty of self-motivation, and a desire to grow your career alongside a team of like-minded, collegial peers. Clerkships are a plus, as is experience with trademark and/or patent prosecution.

ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION

Leason Ellis is a full-service intellectual property law firm with a deep bench of professionals and a collaborative, hands-on approach. We’re big enough to handle any intellectual property issue that our clients may face. Yet we’re small enough to coordinate efficiently when evaluating our clients’ issues, identifying practical and creative solutions for their business needs, and putting our insights to work on their behalf.
