Global Press release - Recognition February 2024

World Trademark Review (WTR) has recognized Norton Rose Fulbright for its trademark acumen, recommending 17 lawyers and seven regions in the 2024 edition of WTR 1000. Also recommended as an international firm, Norton Rose Fulbright was lauded for its extensive global network and diverse practice area offerings.

“With a fearsome reputation in trademark disputes and an unmatched brand protection offering, international firm Norton Rose Fulbright is a convenient one-stop shop for entities looking for commercially sound advice and insightful instructions on contentious matters,” researchers wrote.

The firm is ranked for its overall trademark practice in Canada, Germany, Minnesota and Texas. Australia, England and Hong Kong received recognition in distinct practice areas.

Focusing exclusively on trademark practice, the WTR 1000 is regarded as a leading source for those seeking legal trademark advice. Top firms and individuals are identified based on their depth of knowledge, market presence and sophistication of work. Recommendations are determined through an extensive research process, which includes in-person and telephone interviews with clients and lawyers, as well as written submissions from firms detailing recent activity in the field.

WTR is the only standalone publication focusing exclusively on trademark practices and practitioners, covering more than 80 jurisdictions globally.
