Firm Overview:
Full-service firm King & Spalding is the preferred choice for huge international brands for both contentious and non-contentious trademark matters. With 22 locations across the globe, its practice takes on high value trademark portfolios and represents clients before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board and matters up to the Supreme Court. Its admirable list of clients include household name Coca-Cola, prominent jewellery retailer Sephora, and US multinational home improvement company Home Depot.
Team Overview:
Kathleen McCarthy is “really knowledgeable” and “deserves recognition”, say competitors. McCarthy has an impressive background in litigation, markedly acting for Coca Cola in the US District Court of Illinois. The court held Coca-Cola’s trademark ‘Sprite Zero’ had not infringed on applicant Baig’s ‘Naturally Zero’ spring water mark. McCarthy’s prosecution practice includes directing international and domestic trademark clearance programmes and policing online infringement and scams for several clients.
