WTR 1000: All of our IP Experts Acknowledged!

The results of the most significant international ranking publications measuring the quality of legal services are once again being released throughout the early months of the year. Our success reached a new level this year, as the entire team of our IP professionals was recognised for the first time in the latest edition of WTR 1000 (The World’s Leading Trademark Professionals) publication:

• Hanna-Maija Elo (Gold / Recommended – Individuals: “Anti-Counterfeiting” and for the first time also “Transactions”)
• Kukka Tommila (Silver)
• Emilia Hodge (Bronze)
• Sassa Svahn (Bronze)

Furthermore, Properta’s trademark services – both ‘Enforcement and Litigation‘ and ‘Prosecution and Strategy‘– were once again acknowledged at a very high level, in the Silver categories. The expertise was commented on as follows:

• ”Properta Attorneys is a fantastic law firm within the Finnish IP landscape.”
