Philippi Prietocarrizosa Ferrero DU & Uría’s IP team strikes the right note with sources for its ‘technical level and ability to stay close to the client’. A popular choice for cross-border matters due to its ability to lean on the international network of associate firm Uría Menéndez, as well as its own offices in Chile and Peru, the team handles a mix of IP portfolio management, enforcement and litigation work. The department is co-led by Mauricio Patiño, whose practice spans competition, IP, dispute resolution and TMT-related matters; up-and-coming IP and life sciences specialist Gerardo Flórez; and director Camilo Suárez, who ’provides close and high-level support’.
