Polsinelli has hired four female patent attorneys to launch a Seattle intellectual property team as part of a nationwide push to build its IP practice.
The new team is led by shareholders Emily C. Peyser and Margi Aoki and also includes counsel Katherine D. Lee and associate Jennifer Junkin. The lawyers previously practiced at the Seattle-based IP firm Christensen O’Connor Johnson Kindness.
“I’ve been watching Polsinelli because they have so many women in leadership and have been doing some exciting things around women in IP,” Peyser said. “The opportunity came up to join them and it was a really great platform.”
