Grette maintains its spot in tier one for patent and trade mark contentious work. The firm focuses entirely on IP, which, says a competitor, is both its strength and weakness. However the strategy has proved highly successful. Svein Ruud Johansen and Amund Brede Svendsen have big reputations in patent litigation. A peer who recently lost to Svendsen in a big case says "Svendsen really is a very competent and very clever lawyer". Astri M Lund is described by one peer as "brilliant in copyright". It has historically been a very strong patent litigation firm and in recent years has grown its profile in trade mark and copyright litigation.
