News » Boult Wade Tennant ranked top tier in Legal 500, 2022

Boult Wade Tennant is pleased to share that our patent and trademark practices have each, separately, been recognised as top tier for another consecutive year by the Legal 500 UK, 2022 edition. This continues an unbroken run of well over a decade in the top tier for both Patents and Trade Marks, since we started to be ranked by the Legal 500.

Among the many compliments we received, we have been noted for our “commitment to efficient and cost-effective solutions” and “clear and concise work product”. Clients and contacts have also highlighted our “dedication for each and every engagement”. The rankings have also specifically referred to a number of individual attorneys.

Managing Partner, Alex Frost, commented, “We are very grateful to the Legal 500, as well as our clients and contacts, for the generous words of praise for Boult Wade Tennant. The acknowledgement of our commitment to building and maintaining relationships with clients and attorneys, from around the world, is particularly pleasing. As we continue to reposition ourselves as a truly European firm, with expansion of our patent and trade mark services in the UK, Germany and Spain, we are excited for the future of the business. Key to that future success is our fabulous team of attorneys, supported with some outstanding back room staff, and I would like to acknowledge their critical role in achieving this accolade”.
