Herrick Expands IP Practice with New Expert Additions
Strengthening Herrick's Intellectual Property Practice
In a strategic move to enhance its intellectual property (IP) practice, Herrick has welcomed two prominent figures in the legal field: Milton Springut, a distinguished intellectual property practitioner, and Caroline Boehm, a well-respected trademark and copyright attorney. Their addition to the Herrick team marks a significant step forward for the firm, particularly in managing disputes related to technology and luxury brands.
Milton Springut: A Veteran in Intellectual Property
Milton Springut comes to Herrick after a successful tenure at Moses & Singer LLP. His extensive experience spans nearly three decades in the legal sphere, where he's developed a reputation for handling intricate patent and trademark cases. Springut's diverse clientele includes everything from emerging startups to established Fortune 500 companies.
In his career, Springut has built an impressive portfolio by litigating cases involving key technologies such as mobile payments, e-commerce, telephony, and medical devices. His significant legal victories also include landmark achievements in trademark and counterfeiting laws, which have garnered considerable attention in the fashion industry.
Caroline Boehm: Expertise in Trademark and Copyright
Joining Herrick alongside Springut, Caroline Boehm brings substantial expertise in trademark law, contributing to the firm’s strong focus on intellectual property rights. Frequently representing clients in front of the United States Patent and Trademark Office, Boehm is adept at offering advice on evaluating and registering trademarks as well as devising long-term strategies for brand protection.
Prior to her role at Herrick, Boehm spent considerable time working along with Springut at Moses & Singer, demonstrating a strong professional synergy that is expected to benefit their clients greatly in their new roles.
Enhancing Client Services in IP Law
Belinda Schwartz, the executive chair of Herrick, highlighted that the firm is committed to broadening its capabilities within the IP domain. With the integration of Springut and Boehm, Herrick is poised to deliver enhanced service offerings to its existing clients while attracting new ones seeking robust legal representation in intellectual property matters.
Combating Counterfeiting and Intellectual Property Issues
Springut's track record in litigating high-stakes IP disputes has positioned him as a leading resource for clients facing challenges in trademark law, especially those related to counterfeiting and “gray goods.” His previous achievements include being the first to secure statutory damages for counterfeit goods under the Anti-Counterfeiting Act.
Carol Goodman, co-chair of the firm’s Litigation Department, reiterated the strategic importance of Springut's expertise. She noted that his experience in complex IP disputes will significantly enhance Herrick’s existing litigation capabilities, allowing the firm to better serve clients confronting similar challenges.
Firm Culture and Collaboration
Both Springut and Boehm expressed enthusiasm about joining Herrick. They emphasized the collaborative environment and the firm’s strong reputation within the IP space as key factors in their decision to move. This collaboration allows the pair to utilize their combined skills to benefit clients seeking comprehensive legal solutions in the rapidly evolving landscape of intellectual property.
