Job description
Patent Prosecution Associate | Compensation: $225,000–$250,000
NYC | Boston | Denver | Washington
Hawkstone Search is working an established US law firm with a nationally recognized Intellectual Property practice, which is looking to add Patent Prosecution Associate with 1–3 years of experience.
This is a strong opportunity for an early-career patent attorney who wants more responsibility, closer partner exposure and genuine client contact rather than being one of many associates on a matter.
From my experience with this client, they staff its patent matters leanly, giving associates the opportunity to work closely with partners across patent strategy, drafting, prosecution and diligence while developing a broad and commercially valuable IP practice.
What’s on offer:
· $225,000–$250,000 compensation, depending on experience and qualifications
· Lean staffing with significant responsibility from an early stage
· Close partner exposure and immediate client contact
· Broad experience across patent strategy, drafting, prosecution and diligence
What you’ll be doing:
· Preparing and prosecuting US patent applications across sophisticated life sciences technologies
· Working on patent strategy, drafting, prosecution and IP diligence matters
· Working closely with partners on complex client matters and developing a broad prosecution skillset
· Advising innovative clients on their patent portfolios and protection strategies
What you need:
· 1–3 years of US patent prosecution experience, including experience as a Patent Agent or Technology Specialist
· Experience preparing and prosecuting patent applications
· Background in molecular biology, immunology, immuno-oncology, genetics and/or agricultural biotechnology would be particularly valuable
· USPTO registration or eligibility to practice before the USPTO
If you’re a junior patent attorney, patent agent or technology specialist looking for more ownership, stronger partner exposure and the opportunity to build your career within a sophisticated life sciences IP practice, I’d be very happy to have a confidential conversation.
