A Career at Reising Ethington

Since 1865, we have specialized solely in the practice of Intellectual Property law. Today, we continue to be known for our depth of experience and impressive record in this specialized area of law. Many of our people have worked as engineers, business people, and attorneys at some of the largest companies in the world. As a result, we are able to share with our clients a considerable amount of hands-on experience. We have successfully obtained intellectual property protection in every industrialized country.

A heavy and thoughtful investment in technology provides us with state-of-the-art technology for legal and fact research, communication management, and document presentation. We also maintain one of the largest law and technology libraries in Michigan. This combination of talent and investment allows us to deliver maximum effectiveness, and has proven to be successful when competing head-to-head against much larger firms.

Our firm has been an important member of the legal education community for over 100 years. Several members of the firm have taught patent law at the University of Michigan, Wayne State University, the University of Detroit, the Detroit College of Law, and the Ave Maria Law School in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Five of our attorneys have co-authored several editions of the West Publishing Company's textbook, Patent Law Including Trade Secrets, Copyrights, and Trademarks, and a corresponding teacher's guide.

Our attorneys have co-counseled alongside John G. Roberts (now the Chief Justice of the United States), won a unanimous decision in front of the United States Supreme Court, and have served as a delegate to the United Nations for the World Summit for the Information Society (WSIS.)

As a member of our team, you'll work side-by-side with colleagues in the prime of their careers, and at the top of their profession. Several have been recognized as Super Lawyers, and in other ways.
