Frankfurt Kurnit in WTR 1000 2021
Frankfurt Kurnit is included in World Trademark Review 1000 – The World’s Leading Trademark Professionals for 2021. World Trademark Review says, "Frankfurt Kurnit Klein + Selz has a fine-grained understanding of the intricacies of complex brand-related matters in the media, entertainment and advertising space, and a well-developed prosecution, enforcement and licensing toolkit to keep companies – especially those whose business success depends on strong brands – in the best possible shape. In Catherine Farrelly, the trademark group has a steadfast helmswoman and a “commercially focused practitioner” who makes sure everything going out the door meets the highest standards of quality. She counts top sports leagues and whisky distillers as clients, as well as Hasbro, for which she has handled tricky disputes alongside Kimberly Maynard, who debuts in the guide this year on the back of effusive recommendations. “Kim manages difficult opposing parties and coordinates multi-jurisdictional disputes with great skill. She completes her assignments in a timely fashion and delivers sound, practical advice at a lower billing rate than many other New York lawyers.” The wider IP division also benefits from strong leadership courtesy of Edward Rosenthal, an invaluable mentor and high-calibre litigator whose appreciation of trademark law and tactical nuance inspire confidence."
