US firm Fulbright & Jaworski has hired Robert Chiaviello, formerly a partner in the Dallas office of Baker Botts, as an IP partner.

Chiaviello joins Fulbrights' Dallas office and will focus on all aspects of IP, including patent and trademark litigation and prosecution.

"No other firm has the technical depth and geographical reach in IP that Fulbright & Jaworski has," Chiaviello said.
