SpicyIP is forming a new IP case law team to provide quick summaries of recent IP cases.
Who are we looking for?
We are looking for a total of 3-4 law students/lawyers who can prepare quick summaries of about 3-4 IP orders/judgments each per week for a minimum period of six months. Please note that the process for selection will be a fairly rigorous one, as we are keen to only bring on board those who are very proficient in legal research and writing.
