Patent prosecution laterals, recruited nationwide.
Prosecution hiring starts with your technical background: your degree, the art units you know, and the portfolios you have managed.
Technology first.
We ask about your technical training, bar registration, the technologies you prosecute, and how much portfolio strategy and client contact you handle. Lateral Lock uses that to find the right groups.
- Groups in your field.A software prosecutor who knows the art units in that technology is a different record from a life-sciences prosecutor managing a biotech portfolio. We target prosecution practices whose work matches your technical field.
- Researching each group.We look into the platform, work mix, clients, offices, and trajectory of each prosecution practice.
- Accurate materials.We order the resume the way a prosecution group screens: degree and registration, technology and art units, then portfolio strategy and client contact. You approve every resume edit before the resume goes out. A short cover letter leads with the technical experience that firm prioritizes and goes out with the submission unless you ask to see it first.
- Interviews and negotiation.Everything stays confidential until you authorize a firm. We prepare you for interviews and support negotiation.
The search follows the practice.
Patent prosecution associates, counsel, and partners are recruited across the country.
The recruiter is introduced on Your Recruiter. How a search runs is on For Attorneys. Confidentiality questions are on the attorney FAQ.
