Overview
Tailored and Value-Added Approach
Our clients reflect the diverse reach of intellectual property, and range from individual inventors and start-ups to family and closely-held businesses in the middle market to public companies, and include many companies in Silicon Valley’s storied tech sector as well as traditional businesses.
We regularly represent clients throughout California and the United States. In addition, because many of our clients have a global reach, we work seamlessly with our international network of foreign attorneys and professionals to deliver services to help our clients achieve their global objectives. Regardless of size, location or industry, we develop a tailored, value-added approach that our clients appreciate.

Lean Focused Solutions
Getting outstanding results at a great value often boils down to the way an IP transaction or dispute is staffed. We carefully align staffing with our clients’ needs and the critical issues and unique challenges of a particular matter. Typically, matters are led by a Hopkins & Carley partner who has deep expertise in the IP issues at hand, and who draws upon experienced IP associates, paralegals and staff as necessary. We also pride ourselves on teaming efficiently with in-house and outside resources.
