Norgard, a member of the firm’s Management Committee and co-founder and co-chair of its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee. “We are committed to dismantling barriers for people who have for far too long been underrepresented in our legal community and IP law, specifically. We are proud to put that commitment to action and support the professional education of promising law students through our Carlson Caspers Diversity Scholarship.”
