"The quick and sharp understanding of the entire gamut of IP rights by RK Dewan & Co puts it at the top of IP legal service providers. The service and advice provided by them is excellent," says a client. The Mumbai IP firm continues its climb up the rankings this year as peers note that it is a "very established IP practice". Led by Mohan Dewan, fellow practitioners unanimously agree that he is a "very good lawyer and well versed in IP law". Clients agree as well, with one saying of Dewan: "In my view he is the top legal professional not only nationally but also internationally." Another client recommends his technical ability: "His deep understanding of the matter and high degree of analytical skill and ability were appreciated."
The firm is advising Thermax in a patent matter. It is interesting to note that the team led by Dewan has embarked on a radically new strategy in IP litigation by bypassing the interim injunction stage and going straight to full trial. The objective of this strategy is to obtain quicker relief for the IP owner. So far the experiment is progressing as planned and trial dates have already been obtained. It is projected that the entire proceedings will be completed in a year.
