Buchalter is proud to congratulate Partner Jason Croft on his inclusion in the 2026 Lawdragon 500 Leading Global IP Lawyers — now in its second edition.
Lawdragon selects honorees through a combination of editorial research, nominations, and journalistic vetting of the lawyers behind the year’s most significant deals and cases. Mr. Croft joins a distinguished group of intellectual property practitioners recognized for their knowledge, skill, and impact across the full spectrum of IP law.
This year’s guide reflects a particularly active moment in IP. As Lawdragon notes, 2026 has been marked by trademark disputes in the fashion industry, patent challenges in biotech over safe harbor boundaries and prior art disclosure in gene-editing, and the sweeping influence of artificial intelligence across every corner of the field. The honorees are, in Lawdragon’s words, “the lawyers protecting innovation, defending brand integrity and leveraging the assets at the heart of their clients’ businesses.”
