DENVER — FisherBroyles, LLP, the first and one of the largest distributed law firms in the world, and the only nontraditional law firm to be ranked in the Am Law 200, is proud to announce the continued growth of its intellectual property (IP) and corporate practices groups through strategic hires across its Washington, D.C., and Palo Alto, Calif., offices.
The addition of the new D.C. patent group, led by practice group leader T.J. DoVale, managing partner, intellectual property at FisherBroyles, includes highly experienced attorneys Roger Browdy, James Mrose, Ronni Jillions and Aoi Nawashiro, adding to FisherBroyles’ deep bench of IP expertise and enhancing its proven ability to provide comprehensive services in patent prosecution, litigation and trademark law.
“As we continue to grow, the addition of top-tier legal talent demonstrates our firm’s dedication to providing the highest level of service across various practice areas,” said James M. Fisher II, co-founder and co-managing partner of FisherBroyles. “The collective expertise of these attorneys will not only strengthen our firm’s intellectual property practice but also provide our clients with innovative and strategic solutions tailored to their unique needs. We aim to empower our clients, from startups to established enterprises, to navigate complex practice areas with confidence.”
Browdy brings a wealth of experience in patent prosecution and litigation, with a strong emphasis in chemical, pharmaceutical and biotechnology areas and in trademark law. He is known for his expertise in complex patent issues and has successfully represented clients in high-stakes litigation.
Mrose specializes in patent prosecution and proceedings before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board and has extensive experience across various technological sectors, including medical devices and telecommunications. His strategic approach includes conducting due diligence investigations and advising clients on patent-related matters.
Jillions’ experience includes all areas of patent prosecution, including medical imaging devices, neural networks and computer hardware. Jillions has represented clients in trademark registrations and proceedings before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, adding depth to the group’s trademark prosecution capabilities.

In addition to the growth in D.C., FisherBroyles has expanded its corporate practice on the West Coast by welcoming Julian Zou to its Palo Alto office. Led by practice group leader Jess Bahs, Zou brings decades of experience in U.S.-China mergers, acquisitions and cross-border financings.
