(Publ. 3 FEB 2016) The well-renowned trade journal World Trademark Review conducts an annual ranking of IP law firms. We at Groth & Co is this year yet again ranked with the highest rating, Gold Tier, regarding trademark prosecution and strategy in Sweden.

WTR writes the following about us in its ranking:

Storied ensemble Groth may have started life as an agency, but it has since established itself as a key contender for all manner of mandates. Its multi-talented lawyers are “doing an incredibly good job”; their strategic advice and contributions to seminars are highly valued. The oldest IP firm in Scandinavia has never failed to move with the times; outposts in Shanghai and Beijing work hand in globe with five further offices in Europe to provide joined-up global expertise. Mats Lundberg heads the trademark squad; the outgoing chairman of the Association of Intellectual Property Law Firms in Sweden, he is an esteemed authority on risk analysis, name choice, preliminary surveys and EU-wide licensing agreements.

The ranking, called WTR1000, is the only standalone research directory to focus exclusively on trademark practices and practitioners. Through an extensive research process, conducted by a team of skilled analysts, the guide identifies the leading IP law firms and individuals in 70 jurisdictions around the world.
