Benesch Ranked Among Top Firms for Trade Secret Litigation in 2025 IAM Patent 1000 Guide

Press Releases

Benesch is proud to announce its inclusion in the 2025 IAM Patent 1000 Guide for excellence in trade secret litigation. This honor reflects the firm’s continued success in protecting clients’ most valuable intellectual property assets and defending against high-stakes trade secret disputes.

Published annually by Intellectual Asset Management (IAM), the IAM Patent 1000 is widely regarded as the definitive resource for identifying the world’s leading patent service providers. Inclusion is determined through in-depth research and feedback gathered from nearly 6,000 clients, including senior leaders at industry giants such as Google, Sandoz, Microsoft, Novo Nordisk, L’Oréal, Porsche, Huawei and Samsung Electronics, as well as prominent academic institutions. The guide highlights leading firms across all areas of patent practice, serving as an essential tool for IP decision-makers worldwide.

“Protecting trade secrets is critical to our clients’ success and we are honored by the trust they place in us to handle their most sensitive matters,” said Benesch Trade Secrets, Restrictive Covenants & Unfair Competition Practice Group Chair Scott Humphrey. “This recognition reflects the strength of our team and our depth of experience in this highly specialized area.”

Benesch’s Trade Secrets, Restrictive Covenants & Unfair Competition Practice Group provides trade secret and restrictive covenant consulting and litigation counsel to clients throughout the United States. The group draws on the collective knowledge of attorneys from across the firm’s offices and practice areas, combining more than 100 years of experience handling trade secret, restrictive covenant and unfair competition matters. Many members of the group are nationally recognized as leading authorities in this space. 

This latest recognition follows Benesch’s designation as a Trade Secret Powerhouse by IAM, making it one of only 14 firms to receive this prestigious title. Additionally, Thomson Reuters reported that Benesch attorneys have handled more trade secret cases in the past decade than 95% of midsize firms on the 2023 Am Law 200 list. Furthermore, practice Chair Scott Humphrey has litigated more trade secret cases than any other attorney at a midsize firm in the last ten years.
