Posted by Joe | February 07, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Trademark Application

Great to work with, super helpful!

Peter's a pleasure to work with. He's friendly, professional, reliable, and very knowledgeable. We hired him for trademark consulting and registration, and he came through nice. I highly recommend!

Posted by Terrence | September 27, 2012 | Intellectual Property

Mr. Peter Vickery ESQ: Thorough, Honest, and Affordable.

Peter Vickery has done marvelous legal work on my behalf with regards to intellectual properties I have created. He provided the legal expertise and guidance for me in the trademark registration process. Without Mr. Vickery's experience with trademark law, I may have left myself open to legal threat...s to my valued brand-name. I highly recommend this trustworthy professional.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
