Highly recommend Lindsey Straus

Lindsey Straus recently assisted our retail business with trademark issues. She was referred to us by our local chamber of commerce and we are so glad to have had her expertise and experience guiding us. She is extremely thorough, very responsive and advised on all the legal issues involving a trademark. We had met with others re: our trademark and chose The Law Office of Lindsey Straus to represent us, and we definitely made the right decision. Highly recommend!

Highly Recommend

Lindsey prepared trusts, last will and testaments, powers of attorney, trustees certificates and health care proxies for my wife and me. She was extremely expedient but thorough and prepared all these documents for a third of the price of a Hyannis lawyer who had quoted the job. Her handling of our personal preferences for last rites was particularly compassionate.

Twice a Victory

A few short years ago my company ran into an egregious trademark and copyright infringement. In reviewing local attorneys, I discovered Ms Straus had extensive experience in the field and hired her. Despite the complexity of the case, we achieved a resounding success and very quickly. We again ran into yet another similar infringement in the past couple months so I called upon Attorney Straus yet again. And again, in a matter of only a couple weeks she was able to shut down the violation and bring it to a quick resolve. Not only that, it ended up not costing me a penny. Should we find ourselves confronted with yet another ne'er-do-well attempting to steal our IP down the road, be assured we know who to call. I recommend anyone else do the same.

Trademark Application

We contacted Lindsey to apply for a trademark for our logo. Lindsey was terrific in working with our business throughout the process and we were recently notified that we now have a registered trademark!

Great Lawyer! Honest, reliable, a real partner

I originally hired Lindsey to help me register my supplemental trademark as a principal trademark. Shortly after that time I experienced a Trademark infringement & hired Lindsey to represent me, she informed me of all my options & possible outcomes. I never felt like I was alone & I always knew she had my best interest in mind. She really cared & it showed! If you are looking for a Trademark Attorney that cares more about your satisfaction than racking up billable hours than consider Lindsey. I would definitely hire her again!

Confident & Knowledgable

Worked with Lindsey for the first time on acquiring a Trademark for my business. I knew my company was in good hands, as everything was completed on time and with lots of communication along the way. We subsequently have needed Lindsey in other areas of our business and have had the same exemplary results. Would highly recommend!

Enjoyed working with Lindsey

We asked Lindsey to prepare our (relatively straightforward) wills and health care proxy documents. She was knowledgeable, provided information that was easy to understand, and generally helped us get the job done efficiently. We enjoyed the process!

wonderful and attentive trademark lawyer!

Lindsey Straus was a perfect fit for my business when I was looking to do some trademarking for my brand. She is super knowledgable and attentive and helped make sure the trademark was secure and the process went as quick and smoothly as possible! Highly recommend her!

Confident and knowledgeable

Lindsey took time out of her day to answer questions related to a project I am working on. She projected confidence, while at the same time being sensitive to my concerns.

Excellent Trademark Attorney

I recently set up a company and needed assistance navigating the trademark process. I contacted Lindsey and found her to be knowledgeable, easily answering my questions and able to walk me through what seemed for me, to be a daunting endeavor. Lindsey filed the information, kept me informed along the way, and I now have the trademark for my company: eQuality Health Services! I will continue to use Lindsey’s services and will absolutely recommend her to others.

Happy with Her Work

Lindsey has reviewed 3 fairly complex business contracts for me over the past 8 years. Her comments and suggestions were good, and the confidence she had in her opinions gave me confidence in her. Two of those contracts were consummated years ago, and we have not had any contractual problems whatsoever with the deals. The third contract is still in negotiations. Lindsey was pleasant to deal with, and promt - I never had to wait more than a few days for her to take the next step. I highly recommend Lindsey Straus.

Divorce

Lindsey handled my divorce for me. She was very helpful. There were many aspects that I could handle myself, and knowing that finances were tight. Lindsey guided me through the paperwork and helped me whenever I needed it. She always returned my calls prompty. I would recommend Lindsey to anyone in need of an attorney in her fields of expertise.
