Navigating the Path to Patent Practice

January 10, 2019 • 12:30 PM • Law School 4055

Learn about the unique specifics of pursuing a career in patent law, including the state of the market, the job search and various practice options. With the help of practicing attorneys from Knobbe Martens, Wilson Sonsini, Covington & Burling, and White & Case, we will cover the differences between patent boutiques and full-service firms, prosecution vs. litigation, and additional opportunities, including in-house and government positions. Upper-level students will also discuss their individual job searches, including participation in the Loyola Patent Fair, as well as their interviewing experiences.
