Tilleke & Gibbins Lawyers Recognized as IAM Global Leaders in Patents

Four Tilleke & Gibbins lawyers have been named in this year’s Global Leaders list from Intellectual Asset Management (IAM).

Alan Adcock, Darani Vachanavuttivong, and Nandana Indananda have been included in the list for Thailand—three of the four individuals listed for Thailand—while Thomas Treutler is recognized for Vietnam.

To qualify for this prestigious honor, individuals must rank in the gold tier of the IAM Patent 1000, a highly respected annual directory that identifies the top law and attorney firms and individuals in the world’s most significant patent jurisdictions. The selection process involves a comprehensive four-month research process carried out by a full-time research team that gathers hundreds of written submissions from firms, conducts face-to-face and telephone interviews, and corresponds with patent lawyers, attorneys, and their clients.

Candidates for IAM Global Leaders are selected based on their expertise, experience, and ability to innovate, inspire, and deliver value for their clients. Inclusion on the list is a strong endorsement of the exceptional skills and dedication these lawyers have shown for their client in the field of patents.
