The patent prosecution group of ‘trusted partners’ at Cooley LLP is led from New York by Ivor Elrifi who is experienced handling work in both domestic and international contexts and chairs the firm’s global patent counseling and prosecution practice. Advising on worldwide portfolio development and strategy forms a substantial portion of the group’s workload; it is well-regarded for its ’unwavering commitment to success’. The team has national coverage; in Palo Alto, Mika Reiner Mayer is a standout for her experience handling matters pertaining to patent due diligence reviews in connection with venture financing, IPOs and acquisitions. Patent acquisition and strategic counseling is an area of expertise of Boston’s Heidi Elracher. At the firm’s Seattle office, Bill Christiansen has capabilities across the remit of patent portfolio cases, while Washington DC's Chris Holly has particular expertise in life sciences-related patent matters. Amy Baker-Mandragouras departed from the Boston office to join Foley Hoag LLP in August 2023.
