Managing IP's exclusive survey of the world IP market, now in its 12th year of publication, provides a unique perspective on IP practice – based on the experiences of hundreds of clients and practitioners worldwide. In the following pages, we reveal which firms are recommended, as well as which are rated in the top tier, covering both prosecution and contentious work.
Over the past five months, our team of five researchers based in London, New York and Hong Kong have spoken to hundreds of practitioners and in-house counsel to gather information about the patent market in 65 jurisdictions. Many more lawyers and attorneys have completed detailed questionnaires providing information on their own practice, other firms and the overall trends in the IP market. We have also contacted many in-house counsel to ask their views on the outside advisers they use and recommend in each jurisdiction.
The results of this research are detailed rankings of the leading firms practising intellectual property in each country. As in the past three years, the lists of the leading firms are presented in the form of tiers. The total number of firms listed in each jurisdiction varies according to the size of the market.
This means that the survey is not an exhaustive list of every firm in each jurisdiction; even firms listed in the lower tiers have been recommended by a number of practitioners and deserve congratulations on their inclusion. Those in the top tiers received the most recommendations for the quality and depth of their practice.
The World IP Survey is not simply a list of the biggest firms, or a list of those that have the biggest caseload or are the oldest. Instead, it is a qualitative ranking of the leading firms in each category and reveals which firms are rated by their peers for the strength of their expertise and the depth of their ability to service clients.
