We are running a partner-level search, handled confidentially. The mandate is reviewed on a rolling basis with the client, and what follows is the current brief.

Senior partner role to lead and expand integrated finance and intellectual property litigation practices in the Silicon Valley office. The role will focus on patent litigation matters alongside structured and leveraged finance work for sophisticated commercial clients.

The successful candidate will build and manage teams, develop client relationships, and work closely with cross-practice groups on complex, high-stakes matters. This opening suits a rainmaking partner with deep litigation and finance experience and a track record of client origination.

Portable book of business of $2M+ (USD)
Established partner-level experience in patent litigation and related IP disputes
Track record handling structured/leveraged finance transactions or finance-related disputes
Proven client origination and team leadership skills; admitted to practice in relevant US jurisdiction

Where the match is not obvious from the description, a conversation is still worth having — the specification tends to follow the practice.
