Total word count:2004

In the 2020 edition of the World Trademark Review 1000 - The World's Leading Trademark Professionals, Wanhuida Intellectual Property has been rated in the Gold Band as a top PRC firm for both the "Prosecution and Strategy" and "Enforcement and Litigation" category.


According to the World Trademark Review 1000 2020, which was published in February 2020, Wanhuida is a firm “sitting comfortably at the apex of the Chinese market” and a “go-to trademark firm in China” of foreign associates for its “open and honest communication, high efficiency and good service, as well as proactive work attitude”. Peers attest that the group has some of the best practices in the trademark industry.


Lauded for the extraordinary ability and level of expertise, the firm's Founding Partner and Management Committee Chair Bai Gang is ranked by WTR as a recommended individual. Partner and Management Committee Member Dr. Huang Hui also receives individual honor from WTR for his “good reputation and doctorate in trademark law”. Other recommended individuals within the firm include two other partners and Management Committee Members Jason Yao and Jack Su. With “the ability to handle multitasking, work under great pressure and provide precise, tailored advice”, Jason Yao“very much impresses” with his “professional skills and positive attitude”. WTR editorial commends the role Jack Su had played in a landmark case which saw the Supreme Court distinguishes the extension of good will from the extension of trademark registration.
