Groombridge, Wu, Baughman & Stone LLP partners Nick Groombridge and Steven Baughman have been named 2027 IAM Global Leaders. The program recognizes private practice patent professionals from around the world.

Only individuals ranked in the gold tier of the IAM Patent 1000 are eligible. The IAM Patent 1000 is IAM’s annual guide to patent practitioners in the world’s major patent jurisdictions. From that group, IAM’s editors choose candidates whose work in creating, protecting, transacting and enforcing patent rights merits particular attention. The editors also weigh the value these practitioners bring to their clients.

Nick and Steve have spent their careers litigating complex patent disputes. They represent clients across the life sciences, pharmaceutical and technology sectors, both in district court and before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board.
