Patent Attorney

Meet the Team: Annie Morgan

This next post in our series introduces Annie Morgan, an attorney who recently joined the firm after working as in-house intellectual property counsel for a global company.  

What is your practice area?  

I am a patent attorney and have spent time working at big and small law firms and also working in-house with public and privately held global companies. My practice also includes data and privacy law, which is evolving and growing in importance as a consideration for technology companies.  

What drew you to West Hill?  

I was drawn to the expertise of West Hill Technology Counsel to serve growing technology- and IP-focused companies. In addition to practicing intellectual property law, West Hill provides the opportunity to grow and expand my legal skills.

What do you like about working at West Hill?  

In addition to providing opportunities to work with interesting clients and access to resources for growth in the legal industry, West Hill provides an atmosphere of respect for all team members. West Hill is a firm founded, owned, managed, and staffed by women. That unique perspective helps the firm to provide opportunities to find a much-needed balance to enjoy time outside of work and opportunities to work with an array of clients.  

What makes West Hill unique?  

What separates West Hill Technology Counsel from other boutique firms is that it has the capability for one-stop shopping for both large or established companies and also for startup companies. West Hill’s unique advantage is its ability to serve all companies with a moderate fee structure while providing deep expertise in not only intellectual property but also commercial and technology contracts, corporate and finance issues, and dispute resolution. It is truly a one-stop shop for any growth-oriented technology company.  

What do you like to do outside of work?  

I love exploring new destinations through traveling and enjoying restaurants in the Boston area with my husband. You can also find me reading, making time for art, and gardening.
