Murgitroyd talks about the ten promoted patent attorneys

Murgitroyd is delighted to announce the promotion of ten of our patent colleagues this month, honouring and celebrating their dedication to and work for both Murgitroyd and our clients.

As part of our vision to be the Global IP Partner of choice, Murgitroyd is committed to nurturing talent through clear development routes – all on a backdrop of advocating equal opportunities for all of our colleagues.

Nicole Cordy, Beth Marshall and Lisa O’Brien have been promoted to Director for their successes and contribution to Murgitroyd whilst embodying our values of trust, unity and confidence.

In addition to their Attorney roles within the company, both Beth and Lisa are pioneers of our ESG programme, adding value to the communities in which we operate around the world, as we achieve our ambitious business goals. Nicole has played a key role in the growth of Murgitroyd's client base and professional practice, especially heading up and efficiently managing the conflicts group.

In conjunction with the Director appointments, Clare Collins, Johnny Cray, Annette Flaherty, David Keston, Liam Lawlor, Chris Lester, and Aaron Lucas have all been promoted to Senior Patent Attorney.

On the promotions, Russell Thom, MD of Patents commented:

“I am delighted that so many individuals have been recognised and promoted within our Patent team. It is testament to not only the great work by these individuals, but also their alignment with our business values”.
