DLA Piper (Canada) LLP’s practice is distinguished by its ability to plug into the wider firm’s global IP offering, which provides significant cross-border firepower in multi-jurisdictional cases. The group advises on the full gamut of transactional, portfolio management and licensing-related issues but is particularly weighted towards IP litigation. In Toronto, department head Sangeetha Punniyamoorthy is recommended for copyright, patent and trademark disputes, while seasoned counsel Bruce Stratton has a focus on patent litigation. The group additionally draws upon a talented band of younger litigators, including Bentley Gaikis, who also has an emphasis on patents, and associate Michal Kasprowicz — both are in Toronto.
