This is due to 1) the fact that Intellectual Property permeates all sectors of the global economy so there is significant amounts of legal work 2) the complexity of Intellectual Property from both a legal point of view as well as a technical one especially with Patent Litigation that almost always includes multiple practice areas to address the legal issues surrounding a complex business or manufacturing process and 3) the high-stakes nature of IP litigation for the companies involved.
