Some IP attorneys are aligned exclusively with one of IP&#8217;s business units and function as the points of contact for all legal issues related to their business. Other attorneys focus on discrete areas of law that cut across multiple business units. These include antitrust, compliance, corporate, corporate governance, employee benefits, employment, energy, environmental, global sourcing, intellectual property, information technology, international, labor, litigation, real estate, securities, international trade, and transactions.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\"><span>\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\"><span>The IP Legal Department is committed to providing quality legal services using in-house resources whenever possible.

Our attorneys provide direct, critical legal advice that is immediately put to use by clients making key business decisions.
