Shutts & Bowen LLP was one of only ten Florida law firms recently named in the 2026 World Trademark Review 1000 list. In addition to the firm’s recognition, Tampa partner Woodrow “Woody” Pollack and West Palm Beach partner Patricia Flanagan were identified as top trademark professionals by the publication, with West Palm Beach attorney Jodi-Ann Tillman being recommended among the ‘Next Generation’ category.
WTR 1000 recommends law firms and individual practitioners in the trademark field and identifies the leading players in key jurisdictions globally. Assessments are a result of extensive phone interviews with hundreds of lawyers and clients, and a written submission from each firm.
According to World Trademark Review, Shutts & Bowen commands a strong presence across Florida, combining the breadth of a full-service platform with cost-effective, business-savvy IP counsel. According to the publication, “operating from eight offices statewide, the firm fields a deep bench of professionals who deliver guidance from both global perspective and local nuance.” Woody is praised by the publication for his “meticulous approach and versatility across the IP spectrum,” offering a “distinctive blend of litigation strength and strategic foresight.” Fellow key contact Patricia is recognized as a “trusted adviser for clients navigating sophisticated brand portfolios in high-stakes commercial landscapes,” with a proven litigation record in federal courts and before the TTAB.
Woody, Patricia and Jodi-Ann were three of only 33 recognized attorneys in the state of Florida on the WTR 1000 directory.
