Fox Rothschild is pleased to welcome Kari L. Barnes to the Los Angeles office as a partner in the Intellectual Property Department.

“Kari is an asset to high-tech businesses of all sizes in the protection and monetization of their intellectual property assets,” said Emily J.

Barnes guides large international companies on global intellectual property strategy, including the cost-effective creation and maintenance of foreign and domestic patent portfolios to protect market share, and advises small businesses and startups in their efforts to maximize intellectual property rights. In addition, she provides strategic advice on patent and trademark infringement, freedom to operate and patentability and helps clients assess the IP assets of potential acquisitions.

She earned her J.D., magna cum laude, from Loyola Law School, Los Angeles and B.S., with high honors, from Colorado School of Mines.
