Law Firm Overview

Established in 1918, our Boston office has grown—throughout its more than eighty-five-year history—from a five-lawyer office to a diverse practice of more than 300 lawyers who serve an ever-expanding national and international client base. Our clients range from established industry leaders to emerging companies that reflect the New England region’s strength as one of the premier technology and life science centers in the country.

Our Boston office is a hub for the firm’s litigation, corporate, and intellectual property practices. Our corporate and securities litigation practice is a New England leader in the defense of technology companies and their officers and directors in complex shareholder and consumer class actions. Many of the core members of our renowned intellectual property litigation practice—selected by The American Lawyer in 2004 and 2006 as one of the top five in the nation—are based in Boston, and have served as lead counsel in hundreds of major patent and trademark litigations. Our corporate practice has earned Corporate Board Member magazine’s title of “top corporate law firm in Boston” for the past three years. Enriching our full-service capabilities by providing clients with the specialized legal and technical insight normally associated with boutique intellectual property (IP) firms, our IP practice was ranked as the largest in the Boston area by the Boston Business Journal in 2005.

Clients of our Boston office benefit from our experience in other core practices such as bankruptcy and commercial, environmental, labor and employment, real estate, and tax and from the personal wealth and financial planning advice offered by our private client practice. In addition to actively contributing to our strong tradition of pro bono representation, our Boston office is a major center for the firm’s Youth and Education Initiative, a program of philanthropic outreach based on the creation of innovative partnerships with select non-profit organizations dedicated to serving inner-city youth.
