Founded in 1998, SUNDIAL Intellectual Property Law Firm makes a debut appearance on the patent prosecution ranking this year on the back of strong client feedback. "It has grown very quickly, and is a stable operation," says one client, who further praises managing partner Edmund Chi for his "sincere and high quality services". SUNDIAL is proficient in a range of technical fields including electronics, telecommunications, chemistry, biotechnology and semiconductors. An in-house counsel recommends the firm for patent applications due to its "strong technical background".
