The national law firm of Quarles & Brady today announced that intellectual property (IP) attorney Li Zhu has rejoined the firm’s Washington, D.C., office as a partner.
Zhu is dual-qualified in the US and China and helps brands protect and enforce their IP across borders, including a decade of on-the-ground practice in China. She has extensive experience leading cross-border enforcement campaigns to dismantle counterfeit networks and stop unauthorized sales, designing global anti-counterfeiting strategies, and conducting trademark and copyright portfolio reviews to uncover enforcement vulnerabilities and develop comprehensive protection plans.
“Li’s experience has proven to be a valuable and a differentiating asset for our clients, and we are thrilled to welcome her back to Quarles,” said Lori Ruhly, national co-chair of the Intellectual Property Practice Group. “Her strength in IP rights in Asian countries is needed and provides strategic guidance that will benefit many of our clients.”
Zhu was named to the World Trademark Review 1000 in 2024 and holds a J.D. equivalent from the National University of Defense Technology and LL.Ms from the University of Groningen and Stanford Law School.
“Quarles’ IP team is a talented and well-respected group of attorneys and legal professionals, and I look forward to reconnecting with former and new colleagues,” said Zhu. “My distinctive practice handling cross-border IP issues will help bolster the team and provide the exceptional client service for which Quarles is known.”
