Recently, world-renowned IP business media platform Intellectual Asset Management (IAM) released the 2022 edition of IAM Patent 1000. AFD China was again recognized as a leading firm in the listing. Since 2016, this has been the sixth time AFD China was listed among the best IP law firms in China (silver band), and our president Ms. Xia Zheng was once again identified as a leading patent attorney.

IAM Patent 1000 conducts an evaluation of patent practitioners in various jurisdictions around the world each year. After several months of surveys and interviews, IAM identifies the leading patent firms and professionals based on a comprehensive evaluation of their services, business scopes, teams, typical cases, clients, associated partners, recent development and growth momentum.

The surveys pay special attention to the development of the firms in the past 12 months, so as to fully understand the measures taken by different firms to respond to and adapt to the policies and market changes of various countries. During the surveys, IAM not only focuses on the characteristics of each firm, but also gets close to their business practice, giving the firms time to fully express and explain themselves.

We can never make such good achievements in patent prosecution without our clients’ trust or support over the years. Taking this opportunity, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to all of our clients. These achievements not only show the client’s recognition of our services and but also strengthen our determination to keep providing targeted services for our clients. We will continue to adapt to changes in the market and in the laws, enhance our professional capabilities, and improve the client’s satisfaction by providing them with tailored patent services.
