Quisumbing Torres is a Baker and McKenzie outpost that continues to make headway in the Philippines with trade mark registration and enforcement, the bread and butter of the firm's work. Dedicated to representing the IP portfolios of healthcare companies such as Abbott Laboratories and Pfizer, practice group head and leading lawyer André Betita possesses the experience to meet the growing counterfeit problem faced by the industry. While Baker and McKenzie's favourite clients – Unilever and Procter & Gamble – feature at Quisumbing Torres, Betita's expertise lies in the entertainment and technology industries, where the team manages the prosecution, consolidation and renewal of trade marks of industry heavyweights, including Warner Bros and the Business Software Alliance. Fellow partner Pericles Casuela also focuses on technology companies, but his clientele includes a world-leading manufacturer of construction and mining equipment. Of Casuela, a client says: "He is nice, personable, very approachable and has good knowledge of the law and local environment."
