“Expanding our Washington, DC presence with superior talent is a key strategy for us. Rob, Jon and Bevin bring a wealth of knowledge in their respective practice areas and are great additions to the office and firm,” said Guy Halgren, Sheppard Mullin’s chairman.
David Douglass, Washington, DC office managing partner added, “Rob and Jon’s extensive experience handling significant IP litigation matters in courts throughout the US and before the ITC and PTAB and Bevin’s experience handling high stakes regulatory and investigative matters for large healthcare organizations, including academic medical centers, underscores our focus on expanding our core practice groups to broaden our ability to protect and defend our clients’ valuable IP and advise on the ever-changing regulatory landscape facing the healthcare industry.
