Launched in 2014 and based in Shoreditch, Patent Boutique LLP was created with a view to doing things a bit differently.

Our energetic team members work closely together to provide the best possible client service. We invest in our people and systems, and embrace modern working practices, which are difficult for established firms to migrate towards.

We really enjoy what we do, and our clients enjoy working with us.

The Work

The response to our offering has been extremely positive and so the firm has grown rapidly.

Our clients include multinational pharmaceutical companies, global FMCG manufacturers, SMEs, start-ups, and universities, to name but a few. The workload will be varied. Initially trainees will work on an excellent mix of drafting, prosecution and other pre-grant case work, with the opportunity to work on contentious matters as their experience and confidence grows.

Our trainees work directly with the full range of attorneys across the firm, providing the breadth of experience needed to excel.

Recruitment at Patent Boutique

Autumn 2021 will be our fourth graduate intake and we plan to recruit two candidates to join our ever expanding team.

Candidates need to be articulate and affable, have a range of interests, and demonstrate academic excellence. Realistically, successful candidates need to have, or be on track for, a first-class honours degree and/or a masters with distinction. Our interviews are challenging and test a range of skills.

Full training will be given as you work towards qualifying as a UK and European patent attorney, including attending the Queen Mary certificate in intellectual property law. We expect a lot from our technical assistants and provide an environment in which they can thrive.
