Split between its eight Canadian offices, Fasken’s national IP offering encompasses all key pillars of IP law — including patents, trademarks, copyrights, industrial designs and trade secrets — where it provides full-spectrum support on litigation and non-contentious matters. The firm is particularly dominant in Quebec, as evidenced by its impressive bench in Montreal, which includes high-profile IP litigator Julie Desrosiers; IP head David Turgeon, who specializes in IP litigation; trademark partner Jean-Philippe Mikus; Michael Shortt, whose increasingly prominent trademark practice spans litigation and transactional work; and talented IP and TMT-focused associate Patricia Hénault. The national group also draws on Armand Benitah, who leads the team in Toronto, and Ottawa-based TMT expert Jay Kerr-Wilson.
