George Saad

As a mid-career JD recipient, an award-winning student trial advocate from the Syracuse University College of Law, specializing in Intellectual Property Law, and a member of the prestigious national society – The Order of Barristers – I have developed a profound understanding of the legal intricacies in this field. My academic journey, including a Master of Studies in Law from the University of Southern California and an MBA from Northeastern University, has equipped me with a unique perspective on the intersection of law, business, and innovation. In my previous role as the head of a multi-million-dollar education management organization, I honed my skills in governance, oversight, financial management, and public relations. These experiences have not only sharpened my business acumen but also my ability to analyze complex situations, negotiate effectively, and drive performance improvements. My involvement in various boards, including at SABIS Holding – which owns a wide array of intellectual property and proprietary systems in the K-12 education sector – directly aligns with my passion for protecting and managing intellectual assets. My global experiences and multicultural understanding, enhanced by my proficiency in languages like French, Spanish, and Arabic, allow me to approach intellectual property issues with a unique international perspective. This is particularly relevant in today’s interconnected world, where legal considerations often transcend national boundaries. What excites me most about the prospect of working with my clients is the opportunity to apply my business insights and legal knowledge in a dynamic environment that values innovation and intellectual property. I am eager to bring my diverse interests and strengths, including in litigation, public speaking, and leadership, to each of our clients.
