Merchant & Gould, with its rich 100-year history, is engaged exclusively in the practice of intellectual property law. With offices in Minneapolis, Denver, Seattle, Atlanta and Washington, D.C. we have a nationwide practice. Approximately half of the firm's practice is litigation and half is client counseling and prosecution. Our litigation practice involves both trial and appellate work. Our counseling practice focuses on the strategic management and development of intellectual property portfolios, including securing, maintaining, and licensing intellectual property rights.
As a full-service intellectual property law firm, we serve a broad spectrum of national and international clients, including Fortune 500 companies. We also represent academic institutions and emerging companies involved with high technologies such as the Internet and biotechnology.
Our associates are strongly encouraged to expand their interests and to understand the nature of the firm's various practice areas. The broad base of experience available at Merchant & Gould, coupled with our training programs, develops associates into well-rounded intellectual property law practitioners, whatever their choice of specialization.
Merchant & Gould has a very amiable and collegial atmosphere while maintaining a very high level of work ethic. Attorneys at all levels of seniority freely exchange ideas about various legal issues and mentor each other in their work. Our culture provides both an intellectually stimulating environment and provides our clients with the best possible service. Although we are a large firm, Merchant & Gould's environment fosters the friendly and personal relationships typically found in smaller firms. Our attorneys routinely form friendships that extend beyond the office.
Merchant & Gould strives to provide high-caliber services to its clients, and we develop high-caliber attorneys to deliver those services. This level of service is accomplished in an intellectually stimulating collegial, and rewarding environment.
