Goodmans

Goodmans has a strong reputation in life sciences for its practice focused on patent litigation for generic drug makers. "They have been the leader in generics," a peer says. Another peer calls the firm a "force to be reckoned with." The group frequently acts as counsel to generic powerhouse Apotex in patent disputes. Goodmans was shortlisted by LMG Life Sciences for the Canadian Patent Contentious Firm of the Year award in 2019.
