Law360 Profiles Cahill’s Growing Intellectual Property “Destination Practice”
Date: 03/08/24
Cahill’s growing Intellectual Property practice was profiled by Law360 on March 8, highlighting the firm’s commitment to both growing the practice’s capabilities, and creating a “destination practice” that serves new clients looking for top-flight IP representation. "We don't have an upper limit to how big we can grow this team," said Herb Washer, chair of Cahill Gordon's executive committee. "We have great ambitions. We want this to be a very significant part of the firm's practice. We want to be able to handle any kind of IP litigation."
The new Intellectual Property Litigation practice group has assembled Gerald J. Flattmann, Jr., Colleen Tracy James, and Peter J. Armenio, with all three serving as co-chairs of the firm’s Life Sciences Patent Litigation practice. “The excitement is really contagious," Colleen said of her new firm. "Everyone is feeling it here. It's been nothing short of fabulous."
Galderma SA, a pharmaceutical company focused on products for the skin, initially moved to Cahill when Gerald first arrived at the firm in 2023. The company's chief IP counsel, David Banchik, told Law360 the transition has been seamless. "Gerald has this ability to surround himself with top talent," Banchik said. "I was perfectly satisfied at King & Spalding, and I'm very pleased for what he's been able to do with Cahill."
