The Milwaukee-based office of Foley & Lardner LLP says the law
firm has received a $208 million contract from the National Institutes
of Health.
Foley says the contract calls for it to provide intellectual-property services for up to 10 years.
The
law firm says it will begin performing work this month on issues
related to biotechnology patents, as well as to patents for mechanical,
electrical and software technology.
The firm says lawyers in its
Boston, San Diego, Madison and Washington, D.C. offices will work on the
contract. Its intellectual-property practice has nearly 240 attorneys.
