The WTR 1000 research directory, which focuses exclusively on trademark practices and practitioners, has firmly established itself as the definitive “go-to” resource for those seeking world-class legal trademark expertise. As with previous editions, WTR’s 2022 rankings are the result of exhaustive qualitative research that identified the firms and individuals deemed outstanding in this critical area of practice. Factors such as depth of expertise, market presence, and the level of work on which these outstanding firms and individuals are typically instructed were all considered, as were positive peer and client feedback.
