Life Sciences - Global: Multi-Jurisdictional
What the Team is Known For
McDermott Will & Schulte has a strong presence in the life sciences arena with impressive teams in the USA and France. The law firm's main focus areas include:
• Transactions including mergers and licensing agreements.
• Contentious patent proceedings.
• Advice on product compliance and marketing regulations.
Strengths
The McDermott team has strong technical ability and strategic understanding.
The team at McDermott Will & Schulte is experienced and sophisticated in advising smaller companies on very complex manufacturing and licensing agreements.
I like the good complementarity between the different team members, the ability to quickly mobilise resources and the good network with other firms abroad.
Notable practitioners
Douglas H. Carsten in San Diego, and Sarah Chapin Columbia in Boston are key contacts.
