WTR distinguishes the firm:
Hamilton Brook Smith Reynolds prides itself on devising economical strategies that ensure maximum brand protection. The boutique has streamlined its processes to a fine point, which translates into lightning-fast turnaround times and pithy advice – when a three-line answer will suffice instead of a three-page one, that is what the firm will provide. “Solid all-around trademark practitioner” John DuPré epitomises this efficiency: “He is extremely quick and will come back to you immediately if you have a question for him.” Speed is not his only enviable characteristic, though – “his patience and intelligence are second to none”. The “excellent” Susan Glovsky is equally “patient and very thorough” in catering to clients’ needs; the enforcement maven’s foresight and wisdom have made her an invaluable partner to businesses across numerous industries.

The WTR 1000 list is a prestigious ranking that focuses exclusively on trademark practices and practitioners. World Trademark Review's recognition of Hamilton Brook Smith Reynolds reflects the extensive research conducted by the publication. Specifically, WTR states that it "conducted telephone interviews and exchanged correspondence over a four-month period with hundreds of lawyers, attorneys and their clients involved with trademarks; we also gathered written submissions from firms detailing their recent activity in the field. Individuals qualify for inclusion in the WTR 1000 upon receiving sufficient positive feedback from market sources with knowledge of their practice and the market within which they operate."
