Peers agree former BakerHostetler lawyers, Nancy Frandsen in Philadelphia and Donna Tobin in New York, should be added to the rankings.
Says a peer: “It's because of the quality of their work. When I needed a second opinion, I would call either one of them, because I trusted their judgment, and I knew they were very good practitioners.”
A client who has worked with Nancy Frandsen for many years, comments: She is “a trusted advisor for trademark matters. Nancy provides timely, practical, commonsense advice and is very responsive. We couldn’t ask for a better partner and advisor on trademark matters”.
Trademark litigator Barry Cohen, and a co-firm founder, was a featured keynote speaker on IP and Innovation at The International Trademark Association (INTA) 2024 Annual Meeting, May 2, 2024. “He’s great as a co-counsel,” says a peer, “I really just trust Barry.”
Barry Cohen and Nancy Rubner Frandsen established IP Philly on March 13, 2024, as part of the inaugural Intellectual Property Institute CLE programme in partnership with Temple University Beasley School of Law.
