Godfrey & Kahn SC

Who is Godfrey & Kahn? Godfrey & Kahn provides high-level service and creative legal solutions to its clients. For over 60 years, our firm has been guided by five core values originally set forth by our founders: a focus on our clients’ success; trust in one another and our clients; a culture of teamwork that helps us achieve more together; a work ethic to achieve whatever is possible; and an integrity that keeps us focused on the right thing to do for our clients, our employees, and our communities. Our IP team is focused on our client’s business objectives, whether it is protecting intellectual property to attain or maintain industry leadership, establishing exclusivity in a market niche, or increasing company value. We assist our clients in recognizing their protectable rights and in formulating strategies to obtain, protect, and commercialize their intellectual property, and we can rapidly coordinate the legal and technical resources and experience within our firm to assemble an experienced litigation team to enforce and defend our clients’ rights. We have an immediate opening for an Intellectual Property Associate Attorney with two to seven years of experience and will consider candidates for our Milwaukee or Madison office. Our IP team leads litigation, prepares and prosecutes trademark and patent applications, supports corporate transactions, and drafts and negotiates technology agreements. The open position involves work in all these aspects of intellectual property. The ideal candidate will be self-motivated, have a positive attitude, and enjoy working on a high performing team. A degree in engineering or science or otherwise being eligible to sit for the patent bar is required. We seek individuals whose previous experiences and personal skills mark them as future leaders in the firm and in the community. Cover letter, resume, and law school and undergraduate transcripts (unofficial copies are sufficient) are required.
