Built Different, Recognized Everywhere: HG Law London’s IP Stars 2026

HG Law has been named to Managing IP’s Trusted Talent Table for the United Kingdom in the 2026 IP Stars Western Europe rankings, with five of the firm’s London attorneys individually recognized alongside.

Andy Hilton, Partner, and Peter Hale, Senior Counsel, both maintain their rankings as Notable Practitioners, a category reserved for attorneys whom clients and peers consistently single out for the strength of their advice and the results they deliver.

Arthur Laycock, Counsel, maintains his Rising Star ranking for another year, continuing to build on the recognition he first earned for his work in the space.

This year also marks first-time Rising Star recognition for Saeed Gholhaki and Luke Tregilgas, both Associates in the London office. For both, the ranking marks an early but meaningful milestone in careers built on the same technical depth and commercial instinct that defines HG’s approach to patent work.

Five individual rankings alongside a firm-wide Trusted Talent Table listing is, above all, a team result. It reflects the strength HG has built across its UK patent practice, from senior practitioners with decades of experience to the next generation of attorneys earning recognition in their own right.

Congratulations to Andy, Peter, Arthur, Saeed, and Luke on this well-deserved recognition.
