Husch Blackwell has expanded its technology, manufacturing and transportation practice, adding five intellectual property litigators in St. Louis from IP-focused Harness, Dickey & Pierce, including Rudolph Telscher, who argued the winning side in a 2014 U.S. Supreme Court case on patent fee-shifting.
Telscher joins Husch Blackwell as a partner, as do Kara Fussner, Steven Holtshouser and David Nester, while Daisy Manning comes aboard as an associate, the firm said in an announcement Wednesday. All five lawyers come to Husch Blackwell from Harness Dickey and plan to focus patent litigation and other IP disputes.
