Kramer LLP is pleased to announce that partner Safraz Ishmael has been recognized by Chambers and Partners in the Chambers USA 2026 guide for his work in Intellectual Property litigation. The distinction, awarded following Chambers’ independent research and peer evaluation process, reflects Mr. Ishmael’s standing as a leading patent litigator and his long track record representing technology companies and other innovators in complex patent disputes across federal district courts, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, and the Federal Circuit.

Mr. Ishmael brings deep technical and litigation expertise to Kramer LLP’s Boston office, which he helped establish as a strategic hub for patent enforcement in one of the country’s most innovation-rich markets. His work spans a broad range of technologies, including AI-powered systems, wireless communications protocols, biomedical devices, and semiconductor manufacturing — and he has been recognized repeatedly in Best Lawyers in America and by Law360 as a Minority Powerbroker. The Chambers recognition adds to an already distinguished record of peer acknowledgment that underscores his position among the nation’s top intellectual property litigators.

“I am deeply honored by this recognition from Chambers and Partners,” said Mr. Ishmael, Partner at Kramer LLP. “Patent litigation is demanding, high-stakes work, and it is gratifying to be acknowledged by a publication that holds attorneys to such a rigorous standard. My focus remains squarely on delivering exceptional results for the universities, technology innovators, and other patent owners who trust us with their most important assets — and I am proud to do that work alongside the remarkable team at Kramer LLP.”

“Safraz exemplifies exactly what Kramer LLP stands for — brilliant legal thinking, technical depth, and an unwavering commitment to winning for our clients,” said Rob Kramer, Managing Partner of Kramer LLP. “Since joining the firm and building out our Boston presence, he has elevated our capabilities in a critically important market. This recognition by Chambers and Partners is well-deserved, and we couldn’t be more proud to have him as a partner.”
