Karen R. Bruno

Senior Paralegal/Legal Services Administrator

Karen Bruno is a senior paralegal and serves as our Legal Services Administrator. She monitors and supervises our firm-wide docket to ensure that work is done in a timely manner by attorneys, law clerks and staff, and that due dates are met. This is no small task, as Karen is usually monitoring thousands of due dates for our many clients. She is also responsible for training and supervising our entire staff, and coordinating workflow within the office.

Karen also works directly with C. Richard Lohrman, C. Paul Maliszewski and Robert C. Atkinson helping all of our associates in their day-to-day work. There is virtually no area of our practice that Karen is not involved in.

Karen holds a Bachelors Degree with Honors in Paralegal Studies from Hilbert College in Hamburg, New York. She began her career in intellectual property law in 1995 at a large general practice firm in Buffalo, New York, where Robert Simpson chaired the intellectual property department. Her loyalty and excellent service to our clients and commitment to Simpson & Simpson's mission earned Karen the position of Firm Administrator in 2002 and a promotion to Legal Services Administrator in 2006.
