Ruixue Ran Named One of Top 15 IP Lawyers in China

BEIJING—Asian Legal Business has named Covington partner Ruixue Ran as one of its fifteen “Top IP Lawyers” in China. Ms. Ran is the only lawyer from a non-Chinese law firm on the list. 

Ms. Ran is one of the few Chinese lawyers who specialize in cross-border intellectual property law and is often called upon to share her knowledge with Chinese companies and relevant government authorities. Her practice includes patent, trade secrets, trademark, and other types of unfair competition disputes, and she assists multinational clients with their cross-border intellectual property issues involving China. Ms. Ran also has substantial experience representing Chinese companies in high-stakes Section 337  investigations before the U.S. International Trade Commission and has advised Chinese companies on U.S. litigation in state and federal courts.

Asian Legal Business selected its top 15 IP attorneys based on recommendations by law firms, client interviews, and market recognition. It also considered lawyers’ achievements in their legal practices and new client engagements.
