Marks & Clerk was recently recognised as the biggest patent filing firm in the world. We have been at the centre of the IP profession for over 150 years, and now have some 88 partners and 625 people worldwide. Taken together, our history and our people provide a body of experience in the field of IP that is unmatched. However, no matter how impressive our resources; what is important to you is that we deliver what you need. That is why we will invest time in learning about your business and your goals.As Malaysia transforms from a manufacturing economy to a knowledge economy, protection of innovation is key to success. In light of the potential for innovation, rapid economic progress and the open business environment, Marks & Clerk established an office in Kuala Lumpur in 2009, and is now based in the same building as the Malaysian Intellectual Property Office.Our Kuala Lumpur office handles all areas of intellectual property but has particular strengths in life sciences, information technology, and electronics. We also have a highly experienced trade mark team whose attorneys advise household names across the world on brand protection and exploitation. Our staff are reflective of the cultural diversity of the country with over 10 languages and dialects being spoken.In Managing IP's IP Stars guide and Asia Legal Business's industry rankings, we are ranked in Tier 1 for patent work in Malaysia. We also won the 2016 Asia IP award in the ‘Malaysia Patents' category. According to IAM Patent 1000 2016, we are a "potent presence in the Malaysian prosecution space." One commentator noted that "Malaysian companies are thrilled to have a firm with international standards like Marks & Clerk. In the past, much of that work would have been sent off to Australia or Singapore." A commentator in the 2016 edition of World Trademark Review 1000 noted of our Malaysia business that "Brand owners need both local and global vision and advice, and Marks & Clerk can deliver."
