Active across the consumer products, pharma and tech sectors, to name a few, ‘outstanding’ Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP combines its transactional, counseling and trademark portfolio management expertise to support a varied client roster that encompasses Uber Technologies and Office Depot. The practice is jointly spearheaded by Anita Polott in Washington DC, who is noted for her capabilities in brand protection strategies and trademark licensing work, and Josh Dalton in Boston, who strengthens the practice with his experience that spans retail, tech, media and e-commerce sectors. Boston-based Rachelle Dubow is particularly well-versed in trademark prosecution and global brand management, while San Francisco’s Carla Oakley is routinely sought out by clients for her development of trademark portfolios, design protection strategies and IP enforcement program experience.
