Orrick adds ITC litigator from Venable
Firm lauds seventh tech and life sciences recruit to the firm in two years | Joins Chicago office and will spend time in Washington DC.
Orrick has continued to grow its IP litigation team with the addition of first-chair lawyer Timothy Carroll to its Chicago office.
Former Venable partner Carroll, who will also spend time in Washington, DC, brings expertise in technology and life sciences to the firm. He has first-chaired trials in federal courts across the US as well as in the International Trade Commission.
Carroll is the seventh partner the firm has added to its IP litigation practice in the past two years focused on technology and life sciences.
This includes hiring a four-member life sciences team in California from Milbank in 2022, and the addition of Raghav Krishnapriyan from Morrison & Foerster in September last year to its San Francisco office.
Clem Roberts, co-head of the firm’s IP business unit, said: “Our IP team is on a roll and we are thrilled to add another first chair of Tim’s quality and intensity to our roster.
“He brings an extraordinary record and a deep commitment to developing talent.”
Carroll commented: “Orrick’s strong trial culture and strategic emphasis on the tech and life sciences sectors is an ideal fit.
“I’m excited to join an IP litigation practice nationally recognised for trying and winning cases that matter to companies defending the technologies at the heart of their businesses. And I look forward to working with so many rising stars on our IP litigation team.”
