Leydig Attorneys Listed in World Trademark Review 1000 (2012)

March 21, 2012

Leydig, Voit & Mayer, Ltd., a full-service intellectual property law firm, is pleased to announce that it has been identified as one of the top trademark law firms in Illinois by the World Trademark Review 1000 (WTR). The publication states that Leydig “has a remarkable patent office, which also feeds into the trademark sphere. Clients are impressed by the facilities on offer and regard the group’s attorneys as ‘valued external partners, rather than hired professionals, who are able to provide excellent value for the legal dollars spent.’” The publication specifically recognizes Mark Liss, Lynn Sullivan, and Kevin Parks as top Illinois Trademark Lawyers.

Mr. Liss, ranked in trademark enforcement, litigation, prosecution and strategy, ‘inspires great confidence in the businesses he serves’ and ‘sees legal issues from a businessperson’s point of view and offers perceptive and valuable advice on strategic registration and clearance.’

Ms. Sullivan, ranked in trademark prosecution and strategy, is ‘highly professional in approach and demeanor’ and ‘extremely responsive and customer-service oriented.’

Mr. Parks, ranked in trademark enforcement and litigation, is “similarly recommended as ‘a deeply knowledgeable practitioner.’ His contentious trademark practice involves trial and appellate litigation before the courts and administrative proceedings at the USPTO. Outside of the courtroom, he counsels clients on conflict avoidance and enforcement strategies.”

Through qualitative research, the WTR identifies the leading trademark law firms and individuals in more than 50 jurisdictions. WTR is the only independent multimedia publication dedicated exclusively to reporting on trademark issues for in-house and private practitioners internationally.
