Bird & Bird has hired a senior in-house lawyer to head up its Asian intellectual property (IP) enforcement practice. James Luo has joined the firm’s Beijing office as a partner-equivalent director from Motorola, where he was senior IP counsel for north Asia.
It is Bird & Bird’s second hire of an Asian IP group head this year, as the firm also brought in Ai-Leen Lim as head of Asian IP and portfolio management in Hong Kong in February. Lim joined from Singapore-based Colin Ng & Partners. Luo takes the firm’s IP partner count across Beijing and Hong Kong to five, with the group comprising 17 lawyers in total.
