“Beck Greener is a trusted source of strategic advice for some of the world’s leading brands. The group continues to attract new work based on its stellar track record, international mindset and client-focused service. Practice head Ian Bartlett represents some of the firm’s top patrons, including Ed Sheeran and his company Sidewind Limited with its global trademark prosecution, and Big Four accounting group PwC with strategic advice on marks across the world. “Ian’s knowledge of the law and his business sense make him an outstanding adviser. He is a great negotiator and he handles matters quickly and efficiently.” Highly rated associate Duncan Morgan has been second in command on these briefs. He also takes charge of the worldwide prosecution work for Paul McCartney’s MPL Communications. “Duncan is extremely knowledgeable, responsive and pleasant to deal with.” Next up is Catherine Jewell, who is distinguished as a dual-qualified patent and trademark attorney. She acts as the sole point of contact for a range of SMEs and start-ups who can rely on her to provide top-notch IP advice. Making his first appearance in the guide this year is rising star Kashif Syed. “Kashif is a go-to attorney in the UK who is fantastic at thinking issues through and advocating for his clients’ interests. He adopts a service-driven approach to everything, acting in a careful, cost-effective manner.” Rowland Buehrlen’s base of operations is the Alicante office, where he plays a vital part in the team’s European offering. “Rowland is very smart and practical.
