Share This Page:

Pryor Cashman is proud to announce that for the fourth year in a row, it has been named a leader in trademark enforcement and litigation, as well as prosecution and strategy by World Trademark Review’s WTR 1000 – The World’s Leading Trademark Professionals.

WTR called Pryor Cashman “a leading New York IP and media firm [housing] a team of trademark practitioners who can skillfully create firewalls through protective recommendations that make it nearly impossible to infringe a client’s most valuable trademarks.

The firm was also singled out for its “work with celebrity licensing, [which] is larger and more sophisticated than anybody else’s out there.”

Additionally, three partners were individually recognized for their exceptional abilities and legal acumen.

Brad Rose Noted for “Strategically Intelligent Advice”

Brad Rose, Chair of Pryor Cashman’s Intellectual Property Group, was lauded for his “very dynamic” practice and “dazzling network of music and entertainment industry connections.”  WTR also highlighted his recent work “defending the rights of Lady Gaga by preventing Ga Ga Jeans Limited from registering the mark GAGA JEANS on confusion and dilution grounds.”

Dyan Finguerra-DuCharme is a “Virtuoso”

Backing Rose in the Ga Ga Jeans case was Partner Dyan Finguerra-DuCharme, who WTR noted “always gives a succinct perspective on US law points when it comes to enforcement.” Her prosecution and counseling nous also won acclaim; she recently assisted a major cosmetics company with a mountain of clearance work. “She provides solid advice that is easy to follow and gets to the heart of the matter. The way in which she renders her opinions is very similar to what an in-house lawyer would do.”

Teresa Lee Celebrated for “Non-Contentious Know-How”

Partner Teresa Lee also earned high praise from WTR: “Her prior experience as an examining attorney at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) means that her guidance is constantly thorough and practical.” A client also enthused: “I can confidently say that she is among the most competent, responsive and smartest attorneys that I have had the pleasure of working with.”
