Intellectual property is an indispensable part of modern society, and it plays an important role in encouraging innovation, promoting scientific and technological progress and economic development. 

On May 20, 2024, Asian Legal Business ("ALB") announced its 2024 ALB China IP rankings. JunHe was again ranked Tier 1 in the patent and copyright/trademark categories for its outstanding legal services and performance in the IP area.

Consisting of over 80 partners, counsels, IP lawyers and patent agents, JunHe’s IP team was one of the first legal teams in China to provide IP-related services. JunHe’s IP team can deliver all-round, professional and full-process IP-related legal services and provides excellent support for clients to maximize the commercial value of their brands, works and patents. This work includes domestic and foreign IP applications and administrative litigations, IP dispute resolution and protection, IP strategic planning and training and IP-related comprehensive consulting services. In recent years, JunHe has advised clients on many important IP cases, such as a contract and trademark dispute between Weinian and Li Ziqi, a dispute over an invention patent infringement between AstraZeneca and Aosikang, and KINDER’s three-dimensional trademark review case. These cases have all been selected by China Business Law Journal as deals of the year. The dispute over a copyright infringement on SICIS S.R.L. V. Mosaic Art Series, and the refutation of the trademark “BMW Sound Trademark Melody” have been selected as outstanding cases of foreign-related legal services by the Beijing Lawyers Association and the All China Lawyers Association.

IP represents the crystallization of human innovation and wisdom, which promotes the continuous progress and development of human society. The legal protection of IP encourages innovators to move forward and injects power into the development of human society. Since 2020, JunHe has been honored in ALB China’s IP Rankings for five consecutive years and ranked Tier 1 in both the Patent and Copyright/Trademark categories. If IP is a lighthouse that protects an innovator’s wisdom, JunHe serves as the solid foundation of that lighthouse, ensuring that the path ahead remains guarded and secure.
