AFD China is pleased to announce that we are recommended as a leading patent prosecution firm in the 2016 edition of IAM Patent 1000. In addition to the firm’s recognition, our president, lead patent attorney Ms. Xia Zheng is also selected for inclusion in top individuals.

It is the first time that AFD China participates in IAM Patent 1000. IAM noted AFD China “shines brightest in national phase and Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) applications. The team’s working philosophy is praiseworthy; it really operates in the best spirit of the law, rather than advising clients to sidestep regulations based on technicalities.”

The IAM Patent 1000 is one of the most extensive guides to leading patent professionals and firms in key jurisdictions around the globe. IAM’s selection process is based on interviews with almost 1,500 attorneys in private practice and in-house counsel.
