“The key to this team’s success is the fact that it offers “commercial solutions rather than just legal advice.” Clients particularly appreciated its “ability to come up with practical solutions that take into account our priorities and our risk profile,” even in the most complex and technical areas. This makes it an attractive choice for clients involved in complicated patent litigation: Deltapine, DRM Trading, Esco and Bradken have all enlisted the team’s assistance in recent disputes. It also acts for Alphapharma in the ongoing patent revocation battle surrounding the antidepressant escitalpram. The group is also well known for its skills in the IT/IP arena. It represents Sony and Microsoft in a joint anti-counterfeiting action against a website operator offering purported Xbox and Playstation games. It also acts extensively for Telstra.”
