In Reply To: you probably already had. MBHB.com It's one of the better firms in the patent world. It probably helps if you are a local evening student. Good luck.
Message: If you can afford it, look into judicial or industry externships. I too had no luck finding a 1L IP position. Despite a technical background and professional experience. I was able to swing a an esternship with a federal district judge. This was a fantastic experience. And it helped alot during interviews for this upcoming summer. An industry externship is good too because it gives you experience seeing legal issues from the client's perspective - a marketable skill. Good Luck
