What I'm looking for

I seek an IP- or corporate-focused role where I can manage trademark portfolio work, draft and negotiate commercial contracts, support litigation, and grow in a collaborative firm.

I am an LL.M. graduate specializing in Criminal and Security Laws with strong academic grounding in Intellectual Property Rights and practical experience in general corporate practice. I currently work as an Associate at Thada and Associates (an IP boutique firm), where I manage trademark availability searches, prepare search reports, draft responses to examination reports and oppositions, and handle prosecution documents while advising clients on brand protection and licensing.

I have hands-on experience drafting and negotiating SaaS agreements, NDAs, and other commercial contracts, and I regularly conduct legal research, analyse precedents, and prepare case briefs to support litigation and transactional matters. My background includes litigation exposure through internships and short associate engagements, and I am committed to delivering precise, client-focused legal solutions in IP and related corporate matters.
