Holland & Hart LLP

Holland & Hart organized our Licensing & Technology practice group more than two decades ago to proactively meet the changing business and legal needs of our technology clients. We have since grown to have more attorneys concentrating in this area than any other law firm in the Mountains West Region. Our wealth of resources, understanding of technology businesses and their marketplaces, and sophisticated transactional experience have enabled us to work with a diverse group of clients ranging from very small partnerships to Fortune 50 corporations in a variety of industries and disciplines, including cable television, telecommunications, information technology, natural resources, entertainment, promotions/sweepstakes, and biotechnology.

Our attorneys have experience in matters ranging from procurement of hardware, software development and licensing, outsourcing and offshoring, to transfers of intellectual property assets such as patents, copyrights, and trademarks. Working with our international, patent, trademark, copyright, IP litigation, emerging growth, tax, and antitrust attorneys on a daily basis allows us to provide our clients with a robust scope of legal services and handle nearly every aspect of our clients' legal needs.

Holland & Hart's Statement of Commitment to Diversity
We are proud of our tradition of fostering and maintaining a work environment in which the diversity of each individual is valued and celebrated. We believe that the contributions of each individual are essential to our continued growth and to our ultimate goal of providing excellent quality legal services to our clients, with greater creativity and innovation. We are committed to taking full advantage of the rich backgrounds and abilities of our people and to promoting a greater diversity whenever and wherever possible.

Diversity Pledge
Holland & Hart is committed to promoting diversity by:

• Making every possible effort to recruit, hire, retain, and promote diverse persons at all levels of employment.
• Promoting greater sensitivity to the value of racial, ethnic and other forms of diversity, through diversity and sensitivity coaching or training for law firm members.
• Inviting to partnership diverse attorneys who meet the requisite criteria.

 

Diversity Initiatives
The following are additional examples of our commitment and efforts toward supporting and achieving diversity:

• We make a conscious effort to ensure that women and diverse attorneys are included as voting members of our committees of importance within the firm.
• We work closely with law school deans and placement directors in an effort to identify women and diverse law students who are interested in working at Holland & Hart.
• Holland & Hart offers medical and other benefits to partners of gay and lesbian employees on the same terms as it does to spouses of employees.
• We created an Indian Law Practice Group and actively recruited Native American law students and lateral hires.
• Each year we contribute to such scholarship funds as the Colorado Native American Indian Scholarship Fund, the Sam Cary Scholarship Endowment Fund, the Colorado Asian American Bar Scholarship Fund, the Colorado Hispanic Bar Scholarship Fund, and the Colorado Women's Bar Association Scholarship Fund.
• In partnership with the University of Idaho School of Law, we sponsor a "Law by Day, Jazz by Night" each year for undergraduate minority students who have an interest in law.
• We took a leadership role in organizing and supporting the Colorado Pledge Group's Minority First Year Law Student Summer Clerk Program. Through this program, law firms agreed to add at least one diverse first year law student to their summer clerk program.
• We were involved in the creation of the Cross-Professional Business Networking Group, where diverse attorneys in our community can meet and network with non-attorney professionals of color. We view this as a way to help diverse attorneys increase their business development possibilities.
