Pennie has recently lost a number of its top IP litigators (including the head of its IP litigation to Weil's NY office). My sources there say the firm as a whole isn't healthy and it has been desperately searching for a merger partner. With partners and associates bleeding out of the mother ship in NY, I would not be surprised if the SV office tries to sell itself off to another firm here or if you see different groups heading off to other area firms.
