With over 100 years of accumulated experience in all facets of IP management and law, Dannemann Siemsen Bigler & Ipanema Moreira has more than earned its reputation as one of Brazil’s top IP firms. The firm works with leading companies in diverse business sectors. Dannemann Siemsen has proven itself very proficient in handling any IP issue its clients encounter, excelling particularly in patent, plant variety, biodiversity, biotechnology, licensing and trade mark work. The firm continues to represent Monsanto in highly-publicized litigation — worth over one billion Brazilian Reais — regarding its genetically modified Roundup Ready soy seed technology, as it has done or the past decade. A client raves that “the firm counts with high level professionals. Their commitment is outstanding even when compared to best-in-class law firms. The professionals at DSBIM are highly skilled and hands-on and always looking for innovative, yet secure ways to support the businesses they work with.”

Of working with partner and star Luiz Henrique do Amaral and his team, one client declares that “they are by far the best outside counsel I have worked with. They provide solid legal advice and offer alternatives to move the business forward. They are highly ethical and partner with the in-house counsel to achieve the results agreed upon.” Luiz Henrique do Amaral is a member of the firm’s executive committee, and a former president of the Brazilian group of the AIPPI. Eduardo da Gama Camara Junior is another star at the firm. A peer says that he is a “second-to-none patent litigator of his generation, who applies a robust patent knowledge to his high-end litigation skills.”
