From Patent Bar to Patent Litigator: Carving a Path in IP

View Session Speakers

Join Gene Quinn for a special IPWatchdog Unleashed live conversation with Nancy Braman, Senior Associate at Choate, Hall & Stewart LLP. Nancy’s journey through intellectual property has come full circle—from taking Gene’s PLI patent bar review course before law school, to attending Franklin Pierce Law School, to spending more than three years writing and researching for IPWatchdog, and now litigating high-stakes patent and intellectual property disputes for life sciences and technology companies.

This conversation will explore Nancy’s path into IP, the lessons she learned along the way, her transition from science and IP journalism into private practice, and the experiences that have shaped her work as a registered patent attorney advising clients on patent litigation, portfolio development, licensing, and complex life sciences technologies. The discussion will also touch on career development, mentorship, resilience, and what young lawyers can learn from building a career one opportunity at a time.
