Sunstein has once again been ranked as a top trademark law firm by the World Trademark Review in the 2024 WTR1000.

Named a silver band firm, Sunstein was noted by WTR1000 as being a “leading Boston-based IP boutique” that “boasts high-quality counselling and enforcement services for organizations across a range of industries.” This year’s guide also stated that the firm’s central aim “is understanding patrons’ businesses and delivering the services they need to achieve their goals.”

In addition to the firm’s silver band recognition, the following four partners were named as “recommended individuals” in their respective trademark practices:

• Partner and trademark practice chair Steve A. Abreu along with partner and litigation practice chair Lisa M. Tittemore, who the WTR 1000 jointly praised for their “all-around service” and “deft prosecution strategy and tactical litigation.”

• Managing Partner Kerry L. Timbers, who WTR 1000 noted is “an accomplished patent litigator who does not neglect the brand dimensions of his clientele’s commercial concerns.”

• Partner Sharona H. Sternberg, who WTR 1000 stated is “an accomplished counsellor for pharmaceutical companies in brand matters, but who also advises names in many other industries. She has a strong background in litigation and handles TTAB oppositions with ease.”

Client feedback:

Lisa is the type of counsel who serves her clients best. She is as interested in the areas of her expertise as she is in building strong relationships with her colleagues and clients. Her interpersonal skills, her expertise and her outstanding negotiation skills make her the best possible advocate in a dispute. Lisa is also committed to the community and to the practice of law, and serves organisations and individuals with great energy and dedication, especially in the mentoring and advancement of women in the profession. I recommend her without reservation.

I have worked with Steve for nearly a decade. I have found him during that time to be an excellent and very knowledgeable trademark attorney. He is insightful and cares a lot for his clients, and I would highly recommend him to anyone who asked me. I have also worked with others at the Sunstein law firm and find the firm to be excellent overall.
