We are pleased to announce that Harrity & Harrity has been named a Tier 1 firm in the Washington, D.C. region for Patent Law in the 2026 edition of Best Law Firms, ranked by Best Lawyers®.

The Best Law Firms rankings, which date back to 2010, employ a rigorous and transparent methodology: firms must have at least one lawyer recognized in the current edition of Best Lawyers in the relevant practice area and jurisdiction; client and professional references provide feedback on responsiveness, understanding of business needs, cost‑effectiveness, civility and whether they would refer the firm; data is collected from firm submissions, peer ballots, and industry‑leader interviews. The quantitative and qualitative inputs are combined and firms are placed in tiers rather than strict rank positions, reflecting meaningful distinctions in performance.

This Tier 1 recognition underscores the depth of our patent‑law practice, the strength of our client partnerships and the caliber of our service. For clients innovating in the electrical and mechanical technology spaces, art units in which our team has specialized for decades, this ranking offers an independent marker of reliability and excellence.

For our team, this achievement is also a reflection of our core values. Our commitment to quality, timeliness, innovation, and transparent client service align directly with the criteria used by Best Law Firms®. It is a meaningful validation of our ongoing focus on delivering client‑centric outcomes and staying ahead of technological shifts that shape patent strategy.

Looking ahead, we remain focused on building upon this foundation. We will continue to invest in automation, analytics and training that enable our attorneys and agents to deliver even higher value and greater efficiency. Our giving back initiatives likewise remain a priority, as we believe that a stronger patent ecosystem serves both our clients and the community at large.

We are grateful to our clients and peers whose feedback contributed to this recognition. To those exploring a partnership with us, whether you are a Fortune 500 innovator or a patent‑focused in‑house counsel, we invite you to connect and learn why we say, “We Patented Quality®.”
