Rose, Finguerra-DuCharme and Lee Named Leading Trademark Attorneys by World Trademark Review
Pryor Cashman is proud to announce it has been ranked as a leader in New York in trademark enforcement and litigation, as well as prosecution and strategy, in the 2016 edition of the World Trademark Review’s WTR 1000 – The World’s Leading Trademark Professionals.
WTR 1000 notes that “Pryor Cashman is a persuasive contender on the trademark scene, with some foreign associates avowing that they ‘would not use any other firm in the US’. Virtually no other outfit in the city enjoys the same level of trust that musicians and entertainers habitually place in the team.” The publication highlights three partners in Pryor Cashman’s Intellectual Property Group – Chair Brad Rose, Dyan Finguerra-DuCharme and Teresa Lee.
Brad Rose is a “stellar, super-sharp, straightforward” attorney
According to WTR 1000: “Brad Rose’s connections in the music industry and with big brands are unparalleled, and he consistently delivers strategic, no-nonsense advice.” The “stellar, super-sharp, straightforward” attorney secured cancellation of Christina Suklijian’s GAGA PURE PLATINUM mark for client Lady Gaga, and has joined forces with colleague Dyan Finguerra-DuCharme on numerous other celebrity mandates.
Dyan Finguerra-DuCharme is a “dynamic, driven, fact-orientated attorney”
“Finguerra-DuCharme is service orientated and has an extremely quick turnaround time for spot-on analysis and reports. She gives sound legal advice and makes her clients’ lives easier. Known for giving succinct opinions on contentious matters, she is a dynamic, driven, fact-orientated attorney who leaves no stone unturned.”
Teresa Lee “is outstanding”
Teresa Lee remains the touchstone of the non-contentious arm. Her work also reflects the wider firm’s star-studded trends: she recently helped Jay Z’s investment fund, Project Panther Bidco, to acquire Swedish music streaming service Aspiro. “Her experience as an examining attorney at the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) means that her counsel is always thorough and pragmatic. Every inquiry is answered promptly and expertly, every filing is on time and her proactive approach assures that nothing falls through the cracks. She is outstanding.”
