BOSTON, Sept. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Burns & Levinson announced today that partner Joseph Maraia, co-chair of the firm's Intellectual Property Group, has been named a Go To IP Lawyer by Mass Lawyers Weekly. The list recognizes the top intellectual property lawyers in the region – the ones other lawyers refer clients to because of their expertise, accomplishments and creative thinking.

Maraia has practiced law for over 20 years, handling U.S. and foreign patent prosecution and litigation matters in state and federal courts and before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board. He combines real-world experience as an electrical engineer and master electrician to provide strategic business, technical and legal advice to clients.
