Bronze – Individuals: enforcement and litigation

Bronze – Individuals: prosecution and strategy

The mission of the Hunton Andrews Kurth trademark team is to tactically leverage the strategic value of trademarks and IP assets in order to achieve clients’ business and legal goals. Offering more than trademark registration, the team at Hunton are brand managers and offer clients comprehensive services to maximise the value of their assets. Patrons are routinely “very happy with the team’s results, and are utterly impressed by their professionalism and effectiveness”. All-round trademark specialist Jeremy Boczko employs fierce litigation chops when needed, and strategic vision and a commanding knowledge of trademark law on all occasions. Companies who trust him with their most valuable assets include Fifth Generation, maker of the popular Tito’s Vodka, The Vitamin Shoppe and many others. Highly experienced Jonathan Reichman has been focusing particularly on clients in the entertainment business for over 30 years. A recent victory saw Reichman lead the team for Woodstock Ventures, producers of the famous 1969 festival, against a cannabis manufacturer trying to capitalise on their famous mark. Up-and-coming partner Armin Ghiam is already turning heads. “Armin helped us defend very well and efficiently, and brought the monetary damage to a minimum. We wouldn’t have been able to put this behind us without his help defending our trademarks and copyrights.” A few patrons assisted by Ghiam this year include MIH Technology Holdings, digital currency exchange Eqonex Limited and pharmaceutical company Hisamitsu America.
