Mr. Milgrim practiced law in Paris as Baker & McKenzie’s first American associate before returning to NYC, where he joined Nixon Mudge.
He and another Nixon Mudge associate started their own firm in 1968 and over the following 24 years they built Milgrim Thomajan & Lee into a firm of over 150 lawyers in New York, Washington, Boston, Los Angeles and Austin.
He and the IP group from that firm joined the New York office of Paul Hastings, a worldwide law firm, in 1992.
