Despite the negative effect COVID-19 had on businesses over the past two years, Thailand continued to move ahead on Intellectual Property (IP) protection. And, Domnern Somgiat & Boonma (DS&B) continued to support existing and new clients with IP advice in a broad spectrum of areas.

A rewarding result for the firm was receiving 2023 TIER 1 IP rankings from ASIAN LEGAL BUSINESS (ALB) for Thailand Patents, Copyright and Trademarks and Tier 1 awards from IP STARS (Managing IP) for Patent and Trademark-Thailand.
