    Default job background
    Description
    Job Title Associate/Managing Associate - IP Disputes 3-6 PQE (no agencies) Location London Description

    The Group

    Our highly regarded tier 1 IP disputes group operates across the broadest possible spectrum. Set up over 20 years ago, lawyers in the group have acted in some of the most significant and influential IP disputes of recent years. We are one of a select group of firms to have taken both patent (supplementary protection certificates) and trade mark cases to the Court of Justice of the European Union, with successful outcomes for our clients on each occasion. Our experience is wide and varied, ranging from cross-border patent revocation and infringement actions through to trade marks, designs and copyright litigation involving household brands, famous designs and celebrated artistic works, films and broadcasts.

    Our IP disputes group is especially well known for its range of expertise in the field of enforcement. Our lawyers have secured and enforced countless search and seizure orders; we advise on and secure blocking injunctions for our rights holder clients (our team secured the first ever blocking injunction based upon rights in technical protection measures in Nintendo v. BT and others); our anti-counterfeiting and grey market credentials run deep - we routinely secure customs seizures and civil injunctions to cut off infringing imports at source; and, as one of the very few IP teams with in-house criminal prosecutors, we have successfully undertaken private prosecutions where our clients have been the victims of IP crime.

    We have been in the vanguard when it comes to affirmative recovery and litigation funding. We have market-leading experience in identifying and investigating infringing supply chains, shutting them down and securing significant damages payment through settlement or court orders. Our affirmative recovery solution, , has helped us to recover millions of pounds for our clients over recent years. We have considerable experience of procuring and securing litigation funding for both claimants and defendants through our established relationships with the funding community, allowing our clients to pursue or defend claims off balance sheet.

    Duties and Responsibilities

    The role will involve advising on a varied range of disputes and related advisory work concerning both patents (including in relation to SPCs, FRAND disputes and freedom to operate) and soft IP (trade marks, designs, copyright and confidential information).

    The team's work also involves advising on some more commercial disputes, to which there will be an IP angle, although the actual claim may be in contract, fraud or tort, such as licensing disputes. There will also be a range of general IP advisory work (such as advertising clearance/ASA disputes and related matters) and opposition, revocation and invalidity disputes before the UKIPO and other registries.

    You will have every opportunity to engage in all aspects of the life and business of the IP Disputes team, the wider Innovation Department, Mishcon Future and the Firm, ranging from business development, client care, training and learning, social impact, health and well-being projects. Our associates are never "too junior" to take on leadership roles. For example, the co-chair of our Blockchain team is a Managing Associate, and our Sports Law Academy is led by an Associate in the Innovation Department.

    Skills/Experience

    • The ideal candidate will have c.3-6 years PQE gained within contentious IP, within private practice.
    • Experience of patent litigation would be beneficial but is not essential.
    • A passion for IP, with a solid grounding in its basics, and a commitment to building a career in IP.
