Fish & Richardson Principal William Hunter Named a 2020 Leader in Law Honoree by the San Diego Business Journal

Southern California Principal William Hunter was recognized as a 2020 Leader in Law by the San Diego Business Journal. Of the 100 finalists selected, the honorees represent 20 of San Diego's top lawyers and in-house general counsel attorneys based on professional accomplishments and community involvement.

Hunter, the patent group leader in Fish's Southern California office, was selected, in part, for his 20+ years of experience across numerous industries including digital health, electrical and computer technology, hardware, computer networks, manufacturing, medical devices, nanotechnology, optics, software, and telecommunications. He has garnered expertise in patent prosecution, freedom to operate studies, and the intersection of patent law with other areas of intellectual property.

In response to being named an honoree, Hunter says, "I am humbled by the recognition as a Leader in Law; I could not have arrived where I am without the help of many. Success is a journey with friends and colleagues, not a destination."
