Testimonials

Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.

  • The SHARP IP team has gained extensive IP experience in other big law firms prior to setting up SHARP IP. The team has a personal approach and is easily accessible and very responsive. They are bright, kind, legally skilled in IP, and have a no-nonsense attitude with a pragmatic, commercially focused approach, being able to build up an excellent track record in trademark cases in Mexico. Furthermore, they charge fair rates, and I believe it is very good value for money.
  • Sharp IP's intellectual property practice stands out for combining a high level of technical expertise with a strong strategic and commercial vision. The team, led by Fernando Robles and Sebastián Salido, offers clear, pragmatic, and results-oriented advice, while maintaining direct partner involvement in the most important matters. Their responsiveness, in-depth knowledge, and experience in complex trademark, patent, litigation, and rights enforcement matters are particularly noteworthy. Compared to other firms in the market, Sharp IP offers a more personalized and attentive service without sacrificing technical sophistication. The team's coordination is excellent, and the firm has incorporated technological tools and management processes that improve efficiency and client communication, making it a highly reliable strategic partner for both local and international companies.
