Papula-Nevinpat’s trademark practice has again been recognized in the top-tier of the 2021 edition of World Trademark Review 1000 with the following remarks:

“Founded in 1975, Papula-Nevinpat is a firm fixture on the Finnish legal landscape; and with presence in another 12 jurisdictions across Eurasia, it has established itself as a centralised hub for wall-to-wall trademark services throughout the region. While adept at enforcement and litigation, it has primarily built its sterling reputation on meticulous prosecution, processing thousands of registrations each year. “Widely respected and personable” European trademark attorney Jussi Mikkola provides superb guidance on trademark risk and essential strategy.”

Riikka Palmos efficiently registers trademarks and acts in administrative proceedings from her base at Papula-Nevinpat, where she has been resident for the last 25 years. She serves as director of the trademark department and also heads up the firm’s Russian legal team.”
