Notable practitioners
Naomi Pearce is the founder of Pearce IP. She is known for her work in the patent space, especially in relation to life sciences. She is based in Sydney. "Naomi is an extraordinary lady. She is very strategic." "I cannot think of anyone with as much life sciences experience, especially in the biosimilars area, both in terms of prosecution and dispute. She's the number-one person in Australia for that kind of work and she has built up a great practice around her."
