CHICAGO — Brinks Hofer Gilson & Lione ranks among the top 15 in the United States for both contentious and non-contentious trademark work, according to Managing Intellectual Property magazine’s World IP Survey of 2003.
“The global nature of this survey demonstrates that when companies around the world have serious trademark issues that need legal attention, our firm continues to be on the short list of firms their general counsel can turn to with confidence,” said Brinks President Jerold A. Jacover.
The magazine’s survey reflects the views of the leading international intellectual property practitioners, both in-house and in private practice. Nomination forms were sent to nearly 4,000 IP specialists in companies and in private practice in more than 100 countries and each individual could nominate up to three firms in each of 50 categories. The firms were then listed in the survey according to the number of nominations.
Managing Intellectual Property magazine, part of the Euromoney Legal Media Group, is an international magazine for IP owners, with more than 10,000 readers across the globe, three-quarters of which are senior in-house counsel in multinational companies.
Founded in 1917, Brinks Hofer Gilson & Lione is based in Chicago, with offices in San Jose, Calif., Indianapolis, Ind., Ann Arbor, Mich. and Arlington, Va. The firm is one of the largest intellectual property law firms in the country, with approximately 150 attorneys who specialize in intellectual property litigation and all aspects of patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret and Internet work, unfair competition and technology and licensing agreements.
