Knobbe Martens Recognized As Top Intellectual Property Law Firm In 2011 Managing IP Patent Survey

Knobbe Martens Olson & Bear LLP has once again been recognized among the top intellectual property law firms in the United States by Managing IP (MIP) magazine. The firm has consistently been ranked in the top tiers for their patent work since the survey began in 1996.

Knobbe Martens was recognized in all three categories of the recently released 2011 World IP Survey: patent prosecution, patent contentious work, and national bio life sciences practice, a section that was added to the survey in 2008.

“It is an honor to be recognized year after year for the high quality intellectual property legal services Knobbe Martens provides,” said managing partner, Steven Nataupsky.

The internationally recognized and respected annual survey ranks leading law firms both nationally and in four geographical regions. The rankings are based on the firm’s quality of service and depth of practice according to peer reviews by IP practitioners worldwide. The patent and bio life science survey results are currently available online and are published in the February issue of Managing IP. Trademark and copyright survey rankings will be published in the March and April issues. Results and full methodology can be found at www.managingip.com
