HPC seeks exceptional candidates for a patent and antitrust litigation associate role. HPC is involved in some of the biggest and most exciting patent and antitrust cases in the country. As a result, you will have an opportunity to be on the cutting edge of patent and antitrust litigation.

The ideal candidate will possess:

1-4 years of experience in patent or technology litigation

Exceptional academic credentials, including at least top 15% of law school class and law review or moot court

HPC provides compensation and benefits that are competitive with those offered by large firms in Houston and throughout the country.
Associates at HPC will become partners earlier in their careers than associates at large firms in Houston. The firm does not adhere to a rigid “class” system.

We strive for a merit-based system where each associate is evaluated on his or her own performance.

We welcome diversity in the contributions that individuals bring in terms of their education, opinions, culture, ethnicity, race, sex, gender identity and expression, nation of origin, age, languages spoken, veteran status, color, religion, disability, sexual orientation and beliefs.

At Foster Garvey, you will work alongside attorneys and staff motivated by excellent client service. You will find resources and mentors to help you grow professionally and work with a team that values everyone’s contributions. As a member of the Foster Garvey team, you will work in a culture that is collaborative and collegial. You will be encouraged, and have opportunities, to work on public service matters.

Diversity, equity, and inclusion are core values at Foster Garvey that are integrated into the firm’s culture and the way we do business. Guiding Foster Garvey’s actions in these important areas is the Opportunity & Progress Council (OPC), which establishes and executes the firm’s strategic initiatives aimed at breaking down institutional and cultural barriers to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and creating a shared environment where everyone can do their best work together.

The successful candidate(s) will have:

A portable book of business
7 to 10 years of experience in IP and patent prosecution work
Excellent research, writing, analytical, and communication skills
A client-oriented approach to practice
Ability to work collaboratively in a team environment, including with legal support staff
Demonstrated interest in giving back to the communities in which we live and work
License to practice law in Washington, Oregon, New York States or Washington, D.C. (or the ability to waive into practice in one of the areas)
Candidates based in the Seattle, Spokane, Portland, New York, and Washington D.C. areas will be considered.

Foster Garvey values diversity and is an equal-opportunity employer.
