About

Provided by Choate Hall & Stewart LLP

For nearly four decades Choate has served as trusted counsel to leading pharmaceutical and biotech companies, life sciences investors, and research institution in all aspects of their business.

Our interdisciplinary Life Sciences practice is known for its combination of industry knowledge, and legal and technical expertise. Our practitioners work collaboratively across technology and practice areas, with a team of patent, corporate and litigation lawyers, many with PhDs and other advanced degrees. This approach allows us to provide counsel that is both strategic and practical, always focused on aligning legal and technical issues with our clients’ business goals.

We represent clients through their entire life cycle from startup to maturity, including transformation. Clients seek us out at key inflection points – their first presentation to professional investors or partners, their transition from research to developing products or initiating clinical trials, or initiating their first commercial launch. At every phase, we provide strategic counsel, helping protect valuable assets, navigate competitive commercial and IP landscapes, assert or address disputes in court or at the PTO, negotiate significant transactions, assess regulatory & healthcare compliance, and defend against government investigations.

Clients who partner with us get partner-led experience, true teamwork and an entrepreneurial culture that help build businesses and transform great science into great business.
