Abel + Imray Competitors

An international law firm that acts like your business partner. We were founded in 1896 by twins Edward and Percy Simmons. Since then we’ve never stopped learning, growing and adapting. Our core highly regulated sectors include asset management and investment funds; energy, natural resources, infrastructure and construction; financial institutions; healthcare and life sciences; and technology, media and telecommunications. We use our specialist skills to understand your business and the forces at play around it. All grounded in exceptional knowledge of the legal detail. This is how we consistently deliver smarter, more efficient ways to tackle our clients’ most complex challenges. We strive to provide certainty and comfort to our clients that they are in control of not only the budget and cost but also the timing. The processes, tools, technology and training we have in place enable this to happen across the whole business.

We’re true specialists – focusing on IP and IP alone. With patent attorneys, trade mark attorneys, commercial lawyers and IP litigators, we can provide every type of intellectual property service you need. Our expertise is globally acknowledged - in our top tier status, the awards we’ve won and in the cutting-edge work we do, which helps shape future law.

We are a European headquartered hub for litigation, transactions and advice throughout the world and have remained fiercely independent since we first began in 1837. This means we are free to partner with the best people in any jurisdiction for each client need, or work with your existing relationships. We don’t work to billing targets. This ensures you get the right combination of experts working as one, who take the time to share their different perspectives and find the right answer, no matter how difficult or novel the question is. It’s a rare approach that defines the quality of our advice. And because we like to recruit inquisitive minds, many with science and technology backgrounds, we live and breathe your business, can talk the same language and have a keen eye on the future. We enjoy getting to the heart of the matter with advice that is simple to understand and easy to use. Like any business we have evolved with time, but our focus and spirit have remained as resolute as the quality of our advice and as inimitable as the experience we deliver. We are Bristows, seeing things differently for those shaping tomorrow.
