‘We have worked with the team at Pannone Corporate for many years now, the main reason being their approachability. They also take the time to understand our business and the way the management team operate. As a team they communicate with us very effectively. Responses are always very prompt and we are always kept in the loop with matters in hand.’
‘Very switched on trade mark team with sold individuals at the top and lots of hungry and ambitious associates ’
‘Pannone have been brilliant to work with. I run a small business and Pannone have supported us with taking legal action against a global brand. Understanding our tight budget, they have been extremely transparent with pricing at every step of the process enabling us to plan and prioritise spending. They have great depth in their team, ensuring we are appropriately supported with each step of the process, whether that is working with an associate or senior partner.’
- 'Amy Chandler recently supported a complex legal agreement, spanning two countries' legal systems, Amy advised on what you can and can't do, to achieve an agreement that protects business.'
‘Pannone's IP practice benefits hugely from their partners' key awareness of industry challenges, pertinent caselaw and practical realities in contentious affairs. Case management on the top-down and individual level is particularly competent - few of our other firms have provided such accessibility.’
