Forsyth has experience in working with companies of all sizes, from startups to international corporations. With a background in chemistry, Forsyth has worked with a variety of industries, including manufacturing, construction, medical device, and food and beverage.
“Paul provides more depth to our IP team, particularly in the patent area,” said Mike St. Charles, the firm’s managing shareholder. “We’re fortunate to have a lawyer with his talents residing in Chattanooga.”
