“The team at Aird & Berlis LLP and Aird & McBurney LP are the go-to for IP litigation and opinion work in Canada. Their invaluable insight is incredibly helpful when getting the desired outcome, and everything they do is always on time and in budget.” Setting the tone from the top on the contentious side, “Timothy Lowman is excellent and can always be relied on to provide a detailed and thorough analysis. He knows the facts and can present very complex issues in a straightforward manner. Working with him is incredibly enjoyable and he has an excellent team.” He is joined this year by IAM Patent 1000 debutante Kaitlin Soye, whose PhD in experimental science boosts her legal repertoire and is a great benefit to patrons. On the non-contentious side, Kimberly McManus leads the stellar team consisting of Kitt Sinden, Lola Bartoszewicz, Jay Millman and Erica Lowthers. “Kim is a remarkable practitioner – knowledgeable, professional, upbeat and realistic – and by far one of the very best in Canada.” “Kitt’s knowledge of Canadian patent practice is superb, and he is excellent at helping clients navigate the patent system.” “Lola is incredibly responsive and thorough, and is a fantastic advocate for her clientele and their applications.” IAM Patent 1000 newcomer “Jay is professional and manages his practice with a customer-centric approach. He is strong with drafting claims and patents to capture the essence of the protectable subject matter.” “Erica is patient and prompt in her counsel, and can always be relied upon to deliver solutions that match her clients’ business goals.”
