Job description

Are you an experienced Trademark Paralegal who wants to be part of a collaborative, tech-forward team? Our firm is looking for a detail-oriented professional to support trademark prosecution and portfolio management.

We're not your typical law firm. We value teamwork, efficiency, and exceptional client service, and this position has no minimum billable hour requirement.

What You'll Do:

  • Prepare and file U.S. trademark applications and prosecution documents with the USPTO, including new applications, office action responses, and trademark renewals
  • Assist with trademark searches, filings, renewals, maintenance, and portfolio management
  • Serve as a primary point of contact for trademark clients, communicating directly to obtain information and documentation needed for trademark applications, office action responses, and renewal filings, including acceptable specimens of use, dates of first use, ownership information, and other supporting materials
  • Monitor trademark deadlines and coordinate with docketing staff to ensure timely filings
  • Prepare client reporting correspondence and assist with trademark status updates
  • Coordinate foreign trademark filings and work with international associates when needed
  • Collaborate with attorneys, fellow paralegals, and administrative staff to provide exceptional client service

What We're Looking For:

  • 3+ years of trademark-specific experience
  • Proficiency with USPTO trademark systems, including Trademark Center, TEAS, and TSDR
  • Knowledge of U.S. trademark prosecution, maintenance, and renewal procedures
  • Familiarity with international trademark filing procedures, including the Madrid Protocol
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Confidence communicating directly with clients and the ability to explain trademark filing requirements in a clear, professional manner

Bonus Points For:

  • Prior experience in a boutique intellectual property law firm
  • Experience supporting both trademark and copyright matters
  • Experience with trademark docketing systems and portfolio management software
  • High proficiency with Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook)

Why Join Us?

  • Competitive salary with no billable hour quota
  • 401(k)
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Health savings account (HSA)
  • Paid time off

This is a client-facing role that offers significant responsibility and direct interaction with both attorneys and clients. You will play an active role in the filing, prosecution, and maintenance of trademark portfolios rather than serving solely in an administrative support capacity.

Join a growing intellectual property law firm where your contributions matter and where you'll work alongside a team dedicated to protecting innovation, brands, and creative assets for clients around the world.
