Intellectual property attorneys Francis DiGiovanni, M. Curt Lambert, Zhun Lu and Keith A. Walter Jr. are set to leave Novak Druce Connolly Bove + Quigg to join Drinker Biddle & Reath, Novak Druce senior partner Jeff Bove has confirmed.

“They wanted to leave to join a general practice firm,” Bove said. “That is fairly typical in the intellectual property world. Obviously, we wish them the best of luck.”
