Thailand Copyright Team Ranked in Top Tier by Asia IP

Asia IP

In its 2014 Copyright Survey, Asia IP magazine has recognized Tilleke & Gibbins as a Tier 1 firm in Thailand for its copyright practice. The firm offers the full range of services in relation to copyright, including filing and recordal, licensing and transactions, enforcement, and litigation. In addition to this ranking, the editorial cites Darani Vachanavuttivong, co-managing partner and managing director of the intellectual property group at Tilleke & Gibbins, as saying, “From the perspective of copyright owners, the biggest challenge in Thailand is the lack of effective enforcement measures.” She continues: “Despite the efforts that rights owners and the Thai authorities have made to suppress copyright infringement through existing legal measures, the level of infringement in the country remains high.”
