Rankings

Most-active U.S. trademark attorneys, 2009

The 100 attorneys and law firms that filed the most U.S. trademark applications during 2009. Names and counts only.

Filing volume isn't quality. These rankings show activity. They don't measure success rate, client satisfaction, or specialization fit. A solo practitioner who handles 30 filings a year for a single boutique brand may serve their client far better than a top-of-list firm filing thousands.
