Les Bookoff, Roland McAndrews, and Jessica Winchester are 2026 IAM Global Leaders. IAM Global Leaders showcases the world’s top private practice experts in the field of patents. Only 44 patent practitioners were recognized in the DC Metro Area this year.
To qualify for inclusion in IAM Global Leaders, individuals must be ranked in the gold tier of IAM Patent 1000, the market-leading annual directory that identifies the top attorneys and law firms in the world’s most significant patent jurisdictions.
From this esteemed group, IAM selects candidates for IAM Global Leaders who merit special attention – not only because of their expertise and experience related to creating, protecting, managing, transacting and enforcing critical patent rights, but also for their ability to innovate, inspire and go above and beyond to deliver value for their clients.
