Tiger Brands’ relationship with Spoor & Fisher goes back to 1931 when the firm’s first trade mark application filing was our very own Jungle mark! Our relationship with the firm has grown from strength to strength and we continue to work together as colleagues, rather than law firm and client, in managing Tiger Brands’ extensive IPRs portfolio. We have a dedicated team at Spoor who have made it their mission to not only intimately know our brands (and their related IPRs) but to also have an in-depth knowledge of our business. The team’s depth of expertise and level of responsiveness is unmatched. They are an easy and fun team to work with, and are always willing and able to go the extra mile! – Legal 500, 2023
