On May 10, the world renowned legal ranking agency Benchmark Litigation published its 2021 Asia-Pacific Guide. Watson & Band is again listed in the Intellectual Property area with its outstanding performance in IP services.

Throughout the years Watson & Band has enjoyed a good reputation in the IP litigation and dispute resolution area. A number of IP cases that we represented for the clients in recent years have been selected as top 10 or typical cases for the year by the Supreme Court, local Higher Courts, IP Courts and CNIPA. Through customized litigation plans and tacit teamwork, we successfully protected the clients’ IP rights and legitimate interests and received good feedback and trust from the clients.

Benchmark Litigation is a famous legal ranking agency under the Euromoney Group. Founded in 2008, it originally focused on litigation and dispute resolution markets in the United States and Canada and later expanded its survey range to cover the Asia-Pacific Region, Europe and Latin America. Now it deserves the title of a global guide for the dispute resolution area.

The survey for Benchmark Litigation Asia-Pacific 2021 lasted six months – the research team carried out widespread surveys and interviews with arbitrators, dispute resolution specialists, solicitors and clients from various industries; taking into consideration the cases handled by the law firms and lawyers in the past year, the team finally determined and published leading law firms and lawyers in various areas for 2021.
