Pillsbury has been praised for its work in the trademark field by World Trademark Review 1000's "World's Leading Trademark Professionals" list (WTR 1000), which annually recognizes leading law firms and individual practitioners offering high-level advice on trademark-related issues. Five partners and members of Pillsbury’s trademark practice have been recognized in the 2016 edition, including Bobby Ghajar (Los Angeles), Richard Kirkpatrick (San Francisco), Paul Harris (London), James Tumbridge (London) and Edward Cavazos (Austin).
Pillsbury’s Intellectual Property group earned WTR 1000’s silver band status for both its prosecution and strategy work as well as its enforcement and litigation practice. Pillsbury is noted for its “strength in regulatory matters” which can offer clients in heavily regulated industries comprehensive support. With more than 120 years successfully representing business on intellectual property issues, Pillsbury’s IP practice advises clients on developing successful and comprehensive strategies by protecting, managing, asserting, defending and leveraging their IP assets. Pillsbury fields a team of more than 100 IP attorneys, plus technical consultants and patent agents, around the globe.
Selections for this edition of WTR 1000 were based on research that included hundreds of face-to-face and telephone interviews with trademark specialists, both private practice and in-house, in more than 60 key jurisdictions globally.
