BOSTON – Boston partners Reza Mollaaghababa and James Rollins have been selected by their peers for Boston Magazine’s inaugural “Top Lawyers of 2021” in the corporate law category.

To compile this guide, the magazine invited lawyers in the area to nominate up to three of their peers in a select number of specialties. The top vote-getters in each specialty were then reviewed by an advisory board of select lawyers and chosen for their credentials and the high number of votes they received.

Mollaaghababa focuses on all aspects of intellectual property law, including preparation and prosecution of patent and trademark applications and preparation of patentability, infringement, validity, and clearance opinions. He works with well-established companies, emerging companies, and academic institutions to identify and protect their intellectual property. He provides clients with strategic counseling, including licensing as well as formation and management of intellectual property portfolios.

Rollins conducts a comprehensive securities, corporate governance, and regulatory practice in which he represents investment advisers, broker-dealers, banks, investment companies, transfer agents, issuers, independent directors, and their employees before the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), state regulators, state and federal courts, and others.
