Before Harrity, I was used to working at large firms where IP was not the priority of their culture and was better defined as an afterthought. I love that top companies see that we are cutting edge and as a result, have trusted us with their patent prep and pros. It is an exciting time at the firm. I get touches throughout the day with loved ones that I would not get if I were in an office. I didn t know how valuable that was when I used to be in the office every day. With the implementation of Harrity s proprietary automation tools, I am able to do the same tasks in half the time. The patent field is going through its biggest transformation in history. If you want to be part of transforming the field, then there is no better firm to join. Here, flexibility isn t an exception. It s the expectation. The best career decision I ever made was joining a firm that listens. At Harrity, belonging isn t a slogan. It s the standard. At Harrity, I found a place where family and firm don t compete; they coexist. I m grateful to be part of an innovative firm that doesn t shy away from AI. We leverage it, lead with it, and elevate everything we do. Harrity s dedication to AI isn t just innovative, it s empowering. It allows me to operate at a higher level every single day. Harrity is the kind of place where hard work is recognized, innovation is celebrated, and people genuinely want you to succeed. The culture is unique, and the growth opportunities are real. Remote-first work has given me the flexibility to design my day in a way that maximizes both productivity and balance. Being able to work from wherever I am allows me to stay focused, avoid unnecessary commuting time, and be present for the moments that matter. When I started working at Harrity, I did not know what to do with all the free time I had once I no longer had to commute hours back and forth to work But then I realized what a gift it really was. I started working out, eating better, and had more energy to play with my son. I had time to read books! Remote work has truly been life changing. I love the work we do to improve the patent field. Remote-first work has allowed me to spend more quality time with my family than office-based work could ever permit. View More Testimonials Don t See a Role That Fits?
