Workplace: remote
Unified is now accepting applications for legal internship and fellowship positions for assisting with its legal and database activities (including PATROLL prior art search contests). Å technical background is highly preferred, although some training will be given (e.g., how to search for prior art). Experience with Excel and/or Google Sheets is a must. Interns and fellows will potentially have the ability to assist with reeexamination analytics and drafting of papers in EPR proceedings.
We offer flexibility and the option to work remotely. Internships can be paid or unpaid based on experience. During the position, there will be opportunities to win prize money for contests to find successful prior art on specific patents.
Unified Patents is a member-based organization that seeks to deter NPE litigation within its protected zones of technology. Unified accomplishes this goal in a variety of ways. One way is by filing ex partes reexamination proceedings (EPRs) challenging the validity of NPE-controlled patents. In addition, Unified provides a variety of patent and reexamination data to assist companies in making informed licensing and litigation decisions. Unified also makes this data available to the public for independent study or research.
Experience with MS Excel, Google Sheets
JD candidate or graduate
Undergraduate degree in a field of science or engineering highly preferred

Provides patent analytics, dispute resolution memberships
Unified Patents provides intellectual property analytics and dispute-resolution tools through a membership model. Members access post-grant analytics, patent-quality comparisons (APIX, CITX, BRIX), and crowd-sourced prior art via PATROLL, along with ISIX metrics that track law-firm success at the PTAB. Unlike many competitors, it offers free patent dispute data and combines a broad suite of analytics with crowdsourcing to strengthen patent quality and deter weak patents. Its goal is to help clients reduce risk and costs in patent disputes and improve decision-making in post-grant proceedings through data-driven insights.
