Praised for its ‘excellent client service’, Simmons & Simmons capitalises on its innovative technology to provide an effective service for significant brands spanning the retail, technology and pharmaceutical sectors, among others. The practice is jointly helmed by Darren Meale, who is well-positioned to represent clients in trade mark disputes and has also notably created Rocketeer, the world’s first AI trade mark lawyer, alongside Priya Nagpal, a seasoned litigator capable of assisting with a diverse range of technology disputes that often incorporate multi-jurisdictional aspects. Bristol-based Marisa Broughton adds her expertise in brand strategy and enforcement to the group, while Matthew Siddaway has built his experience across the full spectrum of IP. Joel Smith joined the firm in late 2024.

‘The team we work with at Simmons & Simmons are fantastic.'
'Always available to give great advice when needed, nothing seems too much trouble for them, whether it be jumping on a quick call to run through something or providing in-depth advice explained in a way that someone who is not in the IP world would be able to understand.’
‘Marisa Broughton is a fantastic partner; she understands our brand and is also very quick to adapt to our ways of working. Always available with great advice and only ever a quick teams call away.'
'Priya Nagpal is a strategic and insightful IP litigator. Priya has great experience and insight, and consistently devises sophisticated and effective strategies to navigate intricate IP challenges. Moreover, her collaborative nature makes her a delight to work with.'
'Priya Nagpal is backed by an excellent team, and without her and her team's support, we would likely not have been able to provide support to people in need at the scale we are doing now. Hence, their support has been life saving in the context of our work.'
