    Boston, MA. Leading intellectual property business media organization, IAM, has recognized Nixon Peabody’s Intellectual Property practice and nine of the firm’s attorneys as industry leaders.

    The firm’s hybrid Intellectual Property practice guides clients through the full IP lifecycle—from mining an organization’s research and development activities to capture and protect intellectual property to supporting the commercialization and branding of those assets, enforcing intellectual property rights, and defending against competitors.

    The 2022 edition of the IAM Patent 1000: The World’s Leading Patent Professionals recommends Nixon Peabody for patent prosecution in both Massachusetts and Illinois. IAM particularly highlighted the firm’s US team for offering innovative practice methods and understanding enforcement challenges when representing universities and research institutions.

    The IAM Patent 1000 highlights the following attorneys as leaders in their field:
