Desmarais LLP partner Betty Chen spoke with Managing IP about the success she has enjoyed since joining the firm a year ago, helping bring new clients and attorneys to its San Francisco office as well as preparing several cases for trial next year.
Chen arrived in October 2023 with nearly two decades of experience as a trial lawyer, having handled more than 130 intellectual property cases focused on matters in the pharmaceutical, medical device, and technology sectors. Since she came aboard, Desmarais LLP’s West Coast office has added seven new attorneys, and Chen has worked with clients on numerous litigation matters, including five cases that are scheduled to go to trial in 2025.
“It’s been really nice. We’ve been able to expand the client base, particularly in the Bay area,” Chen told Managing IP in the interview published on November 13, 2024. She added that this “was the perfect opportunity with the new platform and the experience I brought to the table. It worked out really well.”
