Notable practitioners
Lisa Greenwald-Swire
Lisa Greenwald-Swire frequently advises clients on a wide array of trademark and copyright matters, including prosecution and licensing.

Lisa understands our needs and backs us up. She is great.

No matter where Lisa Greenwald-Swire is, she will respond within a few hours to weigh in on the status of negotiations or provide an update on interactions with opposing counsel. Her trademark team, made up of top paralegals and associates, is legendary, but she stays firmly engaged even for routine trademark filings. She does not just send work down to her associates and paralegals. As a client, I feel seen and catered to.
