Editorial coverage
IP prosecution boutique Withers & Rogers consolidates its place in the rankings this year, with substantial expertise and experience in both patent and trade mark work. This past year saw the retirement of partners David Bannerman and David Pratt. The firm's Sheffield office, established in 2009, has also performed solidly and won a number of new clients. One US healthcare and medical devices client recommends partner James Gray. "If I send over a US application that needs to be conformed to European rules he's very good – he always comes back with suggestions and gives us options," she says.
