Moving to Kutak Rock

Kutak_logoI’ve been terrible about writing for this blog for the last month. A major part of that is the fact that I have changed jobs. On April 1, I started at Kutak Rock LLP, a general practice firm in Omaha. In some ways, Kutak is a more traditional law firm than my previous employer which means not as much flexibility to work from home with the dogs by my desk, but it is an entrepreneurial atmosphere and I am really excited about the opportunity to help build this practice.

The attorneys at Kutak have built an impressive IP/IT practice. We can handle any type of IP/IT related legal work from licensing to litigation for trademarks, patents, copyrights, an trade secrets. We can also handle procurement, due diligence and product clearance. My skills fit in very well with the work they do, and their platform works very well with the practice I want to build.

Believe it or not, the practice of law it is a profession I enjoy and am passionate about. Being at Kutak will help me move even deeper into the overlapping area between my passion, my skills, and a market I can serve (a la Good to Great). I’ve created a BHAG (big hairy audacious goal), and I know some really great things are going to happen over the next few years.

Now I need to get to the list of post topics that has been accumulating.
