Potter Clarkson LLP boasts seven offices across London, Nottingham, Glasgow, Sweden, and Denmark, which enables the firm to provide clients with a seamless cross-border offering regarding their trade mark mandates. Registration, enforcement, brand clearance, and due diligence are all within the team’s strong capabilities, as well as representing clients in litigation. Sectors of activity for the group include life sciences, electronics, engineering, and energy, among others. Former practice head Sanjay Kapur has moved into a consultancy role, and the team is now led by clearance expert Emmy Hunt. Both Hunt and Cameron Malone-Brown, who was promoted to partner at the beginning of 2024, are praised as ‘superb’. Sarah Talland is another notable team member, with expertise in global filing programmes and contentious matters.
