Bronze - Firms: prosecution
With a history of top service dating back to 1884, Forresters is one of the oldest patent prosecution outfits still thriving on the UK market. Despite its age, the ensemble shows no signs of slowing down, and its busy Munich office, led by Matt Barton, means that it can easily keep on top of issues on the continent. Everything from broad advice on filing strategy to specific guidance in areas like plant variety rights and SPCs is well covered. Keeping the firm in the spotlight – and impressing in proceedings before the EPO – is Jon Gowshall, a practical adviser with an excellent record ofsuccess.
