EIP has been given a Tier 1 ranking by the Legal 500.

The 2013 edition of the highly-respected guide lists EIP among the top 12 firms of patent attorneys in the UK, and the number one firm in Bath, Cardiff, and Leeds.

Researchers highlighted EIP’s “impressive” patent team and singled out four individuals – Darren Smyth, Heather McCann, Adam Flint, and James Seymour - as recommended attorneys.

Partner Jerome Spaargaren said: “Everyone at EIP is incredibly proud to have received such a high ranking in the Legal 500. An accolade such as this is testament to the enormous hard work put in by the whole team.”
