Four Miller & Chevalier lawyers who often worked on International Trade Commission intellectual property disputes couldn’t take as many as they were offered because of conflicts of interest.

So they have formed a new law firm in Washington, D.C., the Blog of Legal Times reports.

One associate from their former firm is also part of Foster Murphy Altman & Nickel, and the new law partnership may bring in others.

“We really enjoyed practicing at Miller, but we were running into too many conflicts,” new name partner R. David Foster tells the legal publication. “We were missing too many opportunities. We’d get called and have to decline.”
