The publication’s review of Shook’s Patent team emphasized the group’s depth of experience, client-first approach, and ability to deliver real, measurable results:

• On Cory Fisher: “Fisher looks for opportunities for clients to increase their position within their finite pool of resources and is particularly well-versed in AI.”
