Murgitroyd proudly announces that 14 of our leading IP attorneys have been recognised in the highly prestigious WIPR Leaders 2025 edition. 

This global accolade celebrates the top intellectual property professionals worldwide and is a testament to the strength and depth of Murgitroyd’s legal expertise across its international team.

Rather than focusing on volume, WIPR has adopted a more rigorous selection process in the WIPR Leaders 2025 edition to identify only the most highly regarded IP professionals across 80 countries and six continents. WIPR noted:

“The 2025 edition marks the beginning of a more selective, research-driven era — shifting away from a volume-based listing to one that truly reflects the very best of the global IP legal profession”. “Each practitioner is recognised for their proven track record, peer endorsements, and outstanding contributions to the field.”

Their recognition is a reflection not only of individual achievements, but of Murgitroyd’s continued commitment to excellence and innovation in intellectual property law.
