Movers & Shakers

By ALM Staff | Law Journal Newsletters |

Duane Morris LLP has announced new leadership positions in its Intellectual Property Practice Group. Louis Norwood “Woody” Jameson, the managing partner of the firm's Atlanta office and an IP litigator, will lead the firm's Intellectual Property Practice Group. Jameson succeeds Lewis Gould, Jr., who assumed the chairmanship of the group in 1999 and led it through more than a decade of expansion.

Effective immediately, Duane Morris has also formalized five divisions within its IP Practice. This new structure is reflective of the growth of the Duane Morris IP Practice across the offices of Duane Morris both domestically and internationally. Those divisions are patent prosecution; trademark and copyright; ANDA and generic pharmaceuticals; life sciences; and IP litigation. Each division will be co-chaired by two partners. In addition, and reflective of its continued plans to grow all of these divisions, the IP Practice Group will have a specially designated recruiting partner for the practice.
