Baldwins has been named the best New Zealand patent firm at the 2011 Asia IP Awards.
The firm won the New Zealand Patent category, which was announced at an awards gala event in Manila in the Philippines on 11 November.
"We're thrilled to be acknowledged for our work in the patents area. It's certainly an honour for us to be recognised. I think it represents the fact we have a team of world-class patent attorneys who offer our clients a real depth of expertise across a range of disciplines," said Shelley Rowland, Head of the firm's Patent Department.
Baldwins was up against four other New Zealand firms in the Patent category and was also shortlisted in the New Zealand Trade Mark category.
Partners Philip Thoreau and Wes Jones attended the awards ceremony and accepted the New Zealand Patent award on Baldwins' behalf.
