Law firm Harris Beach is expanding its intellectual property practice in Syracuse with some new additions to the office.
Joseph Geller is joining the firm as special counsel and Brendan Palfreyman as an associate. The new hires follow the May 2011 additions of attorneys James Muldoon, Anne Schneiderman, and Barry Manna, formerly of Marjama Muldoon Blasiak & Sullivan, LLP, a Syracuse firm that specialized in intellectual property law.
Geller’s practice involves patent work in areas including electronics, physics, electro-optics, and software. Palfreyman focuses on intellectual property matters and other complex litigation, including patent, trademark, copyright, and trade dress infringement actions.
