WTR1000 described DCC Australia as offering "... the vanguard of premier and cutting-edge IP services in the country. Its volume of applications has been head and shoulders above other competitors... What truly differentiates DCC is its top-notch quality of work – as a practice exclusively dedicated to IP rights, it constantly leads the filing chart while simultaneously offering high-quality brand management advice."
This year the Australian based Trade Marks Team saw individual rankings for prosecution and strategy for Michael Wolnizer, Adam Sears, Ian Drew, Nick Holmes, Elizabeth Godfrey, Stuart Green, Carly Mansell and Marion Heathcote in addition to our newest members "the versatile Sean McManis is as adept at portfolio management as he is in disputes resolution" and Nathan Sinclair who "despenses valuable brand advice both domestically and internationally".
On the enforcement and transaction front Chris Jordan "consistently brings top-level results, which reflect his commitment to his following" and Timothy Creek "focuses on IP commercialisation and assists brand owners in navigating the Australian licensing scene with astute market knowledge and sound commercial acumen".
Meanwhile, in Singapore Esther Seow "draws judiciously upon her all-rounded IP expertise to assist businesses of all sizes in protecting and commercialising their trademark assets."
In Malaysia, the integrated DCC Advanz also featured Pui Keng Lim, recognised for her adept "prosecution and enforcement", whilst "Elite strategist Jern Ern Chuah is intimately familiar with the firm's operations..." and "one of the pillars of the outfit". "Taking care of the advisory department is Siew Ling Lee, who guides her patrons through the contentious proceedings."
