I engaged Kathleen Williams to assist my startup with a complex licensing agreement for a novel diagnostic platform. Her dual qualifications as a Ph.D. and a patent attorney were immediately evident and invaluable. She didn't just review the legal language; she deeply understood the underlying science, which allowed her to identify technical nuances in the IP clauses that a non-specialist would have missed. Her background in biotechnology and life sciences, and the recognition she's received in patent law, gave us immense confidence. Kathleen was strategic, patient in explaining our options, and ultimately helped us secure terms that protected our core technology while enabling the partnership. The only minor critique would be that during particularly busy periods, response times could occasionally stretch to 48 hours, but her replies were always thorough and worth the wait. Working with her at Nutter McClennen & Fish was a positive experience, and I would not hesitate to recommend her for any biotech-related intellectual property matter.
