Bookoff McAndrews
DC-based IP firm Bookoff McAndrews is focused on patent prosecution and strategy most notably for clients in the medical device sector, but continues to grow its presence in the biotechnology area. "The firm provides excellent service across all IP requirements in the life sciences sector," a client says. "If I had to name one firm I consider my biggest competition, I would say it's Bookoff," a peer says.
Founding partners Les Bookoff and Roland McAndrews offer decades of experience as patent practitioners, with backgrounds from a global IP firm. Both partners are active for a major medical device company, managing patent applications and due diligence investigations for the client.
Partner Dinesh Melwani is a "young, hungry attorney who is really smart," a competitor says. Melwani is counsel to a leading biotechnology company, assisting with technologies related to drug preparation and delivery. For his work in the space and reputation among peers, Melwani was shortlisted by LMG Life Sciences for the DC Patent Strategy & Management Attorney of the Year award in 2019.
