This year’s JUVE ranking recognizes our attorneys in trademark and design law and once again acknowledges their global focus . “The team’s main focus is on luxury brands (…), which are increasingly being expanded to include US clients from the pharma/biotech sector. An impressive number of large tech groups from the USA and Asia also ensure a high level of background noise in traditional trademark law (…).” The team’s competence lies in particular in combating product piracy, as well as strategic advice and the enforcement of trademark rights in all industries. Grünecker is also distinguished in competition law.
Prof. Dr. Maximilian Kinkeldey is again mentioned as a leading name in trademark law (“extraordinarily pleasant and fair opponent”, competitor). Dr. Holger Gauss is highly regarded as a litigator (“all-round talent in IP, good litigator”, “practice-oriented, strong in argumentation, keeps the overview”, competitor). JUVE also mentioned Anja Franke, Philipp Strommer and Dr. Nicolás Schmitz.
