Lakshmidevi Somanath Joins Anand And Anand As Partner In Litigation And Strategy Team
Anand and Anand has announced the appointment of Lakshmidevi Somanath as a Partner in its Litigation and Strategy team. She brings over 23 years of experience in Intellectual Property (IP) law to the firm.
An alumna of the National Law School of India University (NLSIU), Bangalore, Somanath previously served on the now-defunct Intellectual Property Appellate Board (IPAB). She was instrumental in several landmark decisions, including the recognition of Good Day as a well-known trademark and orders safeguarding trademarks of RPG, HP, and Red Bull, among others.
She has litigated various IP legal issues in high-profile cases involving significant IP and constitutional law issues before High Courts and tribunals. Her expertise extends to IP legal advisory, audits, valuations, and the filing and prosecution of IP applications both in India and internationally, including PCT and MADRID filings. She also provides strategic advice on IP monetization, contracts, well-known marks, and commercial IP issues.
Currently, she is a PhD Scholar at IIT Kharagpur.
With the onboarding of Somanath, the number of Partners at Anand and Anand is now 33.
