Lawyer Rankings
Guatemala > Intellectual property
BLP‘s IP team attracts high praise from clients for its ‘great ability to handle work in various jurisdictions‘, leveraging the firm’s regional footprint to advise clients on the management of IP portfolios across Central America. The firm offers an impressively broad practice, with its workload ranging from trademark and patent prosecutions to complex copyright matters, IP-related litigation, and the acquisition of IP assets in high-profile transactions. In particular, the team is commended for its advice to multinationals, most notably in the pharmaceutical and technology sectors, where it counts a host of household names among its clients. Other areas of expertise include health registrations (where the team is supported by regulatory affairs specialists Jennifer Calderón and Diana Godoy), data privacy and consumer protection. ‘Wonderful adviser‘ Luis Ruiz leads the IP group in Central America, while the ‘outstanding‘ Pamela López is head of IP in Guatemala. The growing team also includes associates Marleni García and Melanie Avea, who joined from Sfera Legal in 2022.
