World Trademark Review Recognizes Arent Fox Trademark Team Among Nation’s Best
WASHINGTON, DC – Arent Fox LLP’s Trademark practice has once again been recognized as one of the best in the country by World Trademark Review after the industry-leading publication reported the firm’s “muscular group” of “dedicated” lawyers has “invested heavily in its trademark department for the better part of a decade.”
As part of its annual rankings, WTR noted that Arent Fox’s “strong regulatory and cybersecurity groups work in tandem with the team to concoct comprehensive solutions to the most convoluted brand rights conundrums.” WTR named nine Arent Fox trademark attorneys among the best in the country, including Firmwide Managing Partner Cristina A. Carvalho and Partners Elizabeth Cohen, James R. Davis, Ricardo Fischer, Michael A. Grow, Marylee Jenkins, Anthony V. Lupo, Michelle Mancino Marsh, and N. Christopher Norton.
WTR praised Ms. Carvalho and Mr. Fischer’s Latin America work, calling the pair “go-to individuals.” In addition, the publication noted that Mr. Fischer “has a service-minded approach and turns work around swiftly,” and Ms. Carvalho is a “prosecution ace who is experienced in licensing and technology transfers.”
Calling out Arent Fox’s New York Trademark team, the publication lauded Ms. Cohen for providing “trenchant and tailored advice on everything from registration to enforcement”; labeled Ms. Jenkins as a “litigator well suited to multifaceted cases involving patent, trademark and copyright claims”; and reported that Ms. Marsh is a “pragmatic and skillful negotiator who regularly affects the wider trademark landscape through her distinguished advocacy in important litigations.”
Among Arent Fox’s Washington-based attorneys, the publication dubbed Mr. Grow “incredibly gifted”; labelled Mr. Lupo as a “contentious hotshot who is as sharp as a tack”; noted that Mr. Davis “operates seamlessly across the contentious/non-contentious divide and also has a knack for internet law and domain name disputes”; and praised Mr. Norton stating that he “excels at managing gigantic global portfolios and is instructed by Restaurant Brands International to safeguard the idolised BURGER KING and TIM HORTONS marks.”
