Foster Garvey is looking to expand its patent prosecution practice and is looking to hire an attorney or a group of attorneys interested in helping grow the firm and their practice. Foster Garvey is seeking candidates at a principal level that would do work for existing clients and bring a portable book of business to the firm. Experience working across areas such as mechanical, electrical, and food technology preferred. This position includes extensive interaction with in-house attorneys, investors, and firm attorneys.

Our patent attorneys have experience across all areas of patent office litigation including inter partes review, post-grant review, covered business methods, and ex parte reexamination.

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)
