Dentons strengthens IP practice with addition of two partners

October 1, 2026

Dentons is pleased to announce the addition of partners Patrick Rasche and Rachel Bennett to its Intellectual Property and Technology team in the US. Their experience bolsters Dentons' IP capabilities across patent preparation and prosecution, licensing, litigation and strategic portfolio management, serving clients ranging from emerging companies to global manufacturers.

Pat counsels companies and individuals on the protection and enforcement of their intellectual property. Registered to practice before the US Patent and Trademark Office, he assists clients with securing and managing US and foreign patent portfolios across a broad range of technologies.

Rachel's practice focuses on patent preparation and prosecution, IP licensing and litigation. Her practice encompasses patent matters involving autonomous driving, machine learning, electrical technologies, medical imaging systems as well as medical devices, mechanical devices, computer software technologies, and bioengineering. Fluent in Chinese, she regularly counsels clients on IP prosecution and enforcement strategies in China.

"Dentons delivers a seamless experience for clients like mine who need to protect their intellectual capital across the world. I'm excited to join Dentons, where I can continue serving clients as their portfolios and footprints expand," said Pat Rasche.

"As the IP landscape continues to evolve, having the resources and collaborative culture of Dentons is a tremendous asset. I look forward to working with my new colleagues across the firm to deliver innovative and tailored solutions for clients," said Rachel Bennett.

"We are thrilled to welcome Rachel and Pat to the Dentons office in Indianapolis," said Keith Bice, Managing Partner. "Their combined experience in patent law, deep technical backgrounds and strong client relationships enhance our ability to serve clients with complex intellectual property needs across the US and beyond. Their addition to our team reflects our continued commitment to adding top-tier talent and delivering best-in-class IP counsel."
