Employer: Ropes & Gray Title and Practice Area: Partner, Intellectual Property Litigation
Describe your biggest win or accomplishment in practice. Our recent win for Emerson Electric in the [International Trade Commission] stemmed from a true cooperation between a client willing to stand up for its position in court and a top-notch team of Ropes litigators. We collaborated from the beginning on a strategy crafted toward winning at trial, and it paid off.
What was the most valuable lesson you learned in your first year practicing law? When I miscalculated a due date—which fortunately resulted only in some embarrassment before opposing counsel, and not a missed deadline—I learned how it's important to own up to your mistakes. Everyone makes them, but you build trust by taking responsibility, learning, and moving on.
