Durie, Tangri and Page became partners there; Lemley, an intellectual property professor at Stanford Law School, was of counsel; and all of them helped build one of the country’s most potent IP litigation groups, with clients like Genentech Inc., Google Inc. and Comcast Corp. But the idea of starting their own firm never faded.
