Hanson Bridgett's LA Market Leader Honored as Global Leader by World Trademark Review

August 25, 2021 (San Francisco, CA) – Hanson Bridgett Partner and Los Angeles Market Leader, Raffi Zerounian, has been selected by World Trademark Review (WTR) for inclusion in its list of WTR Global Leaders for private practice.

In order to be qualified in the third edition of WTR Global Leaders, attorneys must be ranked in the gold tier of WTR 1000. Global Leaders are those who "merit special attention owing not only to their expertise and experience in creating, protecting, managing and enforcing essential brand rights, but also their ability to innovate, inspire and go above and beyond to deliver to their clients." WTR's market-leading, three-month research seeks to find the "best of the best" in trademark law.

Zerounian has been recognized in WTR 1000 consecutively since 2017. He was recently ranked at their gold-level for his work in two categories: trademark enforcement and litigation as well as prosecution and strategy. According to client feedback, Zerounian was said to be “a very thoughtful counsel with an awe-inspiring knowledge of the law, but he also has a very practical mind.”

"I always practice with my client's best interests in mind and aim to provide practical and cost-effective solutions. I am honored to represent the clients that trust Hanson Bridgett and my team to handle their trademark matters," said Zerounian.

The WTR 1000 is the only standalone publication to recommend attorneys and their firms exclusively in the trademark field and identifies leading firms in over 80 key jurisdictions globally. It highlights leaders in the respective areas of prosecution and strategy, enforcement and litigation, and anti-counterfeiting.
