Description
We have an exciting new opportunity for an Associate to join our IP Disputes team in London to focus on our Patent Disputes practice, particularly within the Life Sciences and Technology sectors. The role has arisen following a number of high profile partner arrivals in recent years and the team being involved in some of the leading patent cases in the UK Courts.
The practice
Our IP Disputes team is known for acting in high profile, high value IP litigation with an international element, as well as handling portfolio management matters for internationally recognised brands. We are currently acting in litigation in the High Court, Court of Appeal, Supreme Court and General Court (CJEU) on a range of matters encompassing patents, designs, copyright, passing off, and trade mark infringement.
We act for leading companies in the life sciences, digital business, transport & automotive, retail & consumer and energy sectors. Our sector-focussed approach ensures that we have valuable expertise in the areas in which our clients operate and deep understanding of the issues that they face.
The role will mainly be working with and supporting Will James, a Partner who joined Osborne Clarke in April 9 and who specialises in complex technical life sciences and technology patent disputes. Will is recognised in the key legal and IP directories.
