You went to law school because someone told you a technical degree plus a JD was a golden ticket.
They weren't wrong. But three years in, you're starting to wonder if this is what they meant.
You're either stuck in prosecution — drafting office actions at 11pm on the same narrow patent family you inherited as a first year — or you're in litigation, buried in document review, never touching the actual technology.
Most AmLaw firms make you pick a lane. Prosecution or litigation. One or the other.
This isn't that.
A top-tier AmLaw firm with one of the most recognized IP practices in the country is hiring a mid-level patent associate in Boston who can work across both patent prosecution and litigation. That combination is rare at this level — and it's what makes this seat different from every other patent posting you've scrolled past.
The work spans:
- Patent prosecution across AI, software, hardware, semiconductor, and communications technologies
- Patent litigation including ITC proceedings, district court, and PTAB
- Client counseling on portfolio strategy, freedom-to-operate, and competitive intelligence
- Due diligence on IP-heavy M&A transactions
This is a dedicated IP platform in Boston — not a satellite office where patent work gets farmed out from headquarters. The team handles matters for major technology and life sciences clients from origination through resolution.
What you bring:
- 2-5 years of patent experience (prosecution, litigation, or both)
- Technical degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or computer science
- USPTO registration
- Massachusetts bar or eligibility to obtain
What you get:
- The rare chance to build expertise across both prosecution and litigation at a single firm
- A practice where your technical background isn't just a credential — it's what makes you valuable in the room
- Top market salary + bonus
