Frazier co-heads the department with Jennifer Barry, based in San Diego, and Austin’s Jeff Homrig. In Washington, DC, Gabriel K. Bell specializes in patent litigation in the Federal Circuit and District Courts. In New York City, Rachel Renee Blitzer, who was promoted to partnership in March 2024, focuses on complex patent and trade secret cases involving technologies, machinery, and medical devices. Douglas Lumish is well-regarded for his exceptional patent litigation record, and practices from the Bay Area. Maximilian Grant retired in December 2024.
