Eckert Seamans proudly announced that Roberta Jacobs-Meadway has been ranked by her peers and clients as a leader in Intellectual Property law in the recently published Chambers USA: America’s Leading Lawyers for Business 2008 rankings guide.  Noted the guide: 

A recent addition to Eckert Seamans Cherin & Mellott, Roberta Jacobs-Meadway is commended by clients and peers for being at the “top of her field” and the “best trademark attorney in Philadelphia .” Her “impressive and excellent quality” work spans trademark, unfair competition and trade dress issues. 

Chambers’ selection process is based on interviews with in-house law departments and with other attorneys around the country.  The rankings are based on qualities such as technical legal ability, professional conduct, commitment, client service and commercial awareness.  Copies of the guide are distributed nationally and internationally to help firms and clients to identify the best attorneys in their respective disciplines and markets.  Law firms, practice groups and individual lawyers are ranked by state, according to a tiered scale of one to six. 

“We are very proud of Bobbi for being recognized by Chambers & Partners,” said Tim Ryan, Chief Executive Officer of Eckert Seamans.  “Because these rankings include the opinions of in-house counsel, they show that our attorneys’ commitment to clients has been the key to our firm building its reputation for providing the highest levels of legal counsel and client service.”
