PUBPAT seeks attorneys and law students with particular interest in patent law to work on various patent focused matters, in either a Pro Bono or Internship capacity. Example projects include analyzing the validity and scope of individual patents, drafting commentary on proposed legislation or regulations, and investigating the impact current patent law has on civil liberties, public health, and free markets.
Pro Bono matters are assigned based on an attorney or student's preference and availability, but require a minimum commitment of 3-10 hours per week. Semester and Summer un-paid Internship Opportunities are available for interested and qualified law students.
To inquire about current Pro Bono or Internship Opportunities, please send an email to info@pubpat.org describing your background, interest and availability. You will be contacted by a PUBPAT staff member when an appropriate opportunity becomes available. Thank you for your interest.
