2026

"Lewis Silkin  provide an efficient and reliable trademark filing and portfolio management service. They are responsive, proactive in managing deadlines and renewals, and facilitate our international filings across multiple jurisdictions. They combine strong technical expertise with clear communication, which makes the administrative side of trademark portfolio management straightforward and dependable."

"Lewis Silkin provide pragmatic and commercially focused advice on trademark strategy and brand protection. They understand the realities of scaling technology companies and tailor their guidance accordingly, helping us prioritise filings, manage risk, and build a coherent global trademark portfolio. Their advice is clear, practical, and aligned with our broader commercial objectives."

"Lewis Silkin’s IP litigation team is exceptionally commercial, strategic, and easy to work with. They combine deep subject‑matter expertise with practical judgment, and they are particularly strong at helping clients assess real‑world risk and make smart decisions rather than over‑litigating."

"I like the Lewis Silkin IP litigation team’s technical expertise in intellectual property law, their strategic approach to case management, and their strong client engagement throughout the litigation life cycle."

"Abbie Wise is a total rockstar. She's highly responsive, detail‑oriented, and thoughtful about portfolio strategy. She and her team handle day‑to‑day prosecution seamlessly while keeping an eye on the broader business context. This makes them a trusted extension of our team rather than just a filing shop."

"Abigail Wise combines deep technical expertise in trade mark law with a pragmatic, commercially informed approach. From counsel’s perspective, she is particularly strong at identifying the real issues early, calibrating risk appropriately, and ensuring that advice is clearly aligned with the client’s objectives.
