I hold degrees in both Electrical Engineering and Industrial Engineering, providing me with the technical expertise to understand the details of your inventions. I have several years of big firm and boutique firm experience - including experience with one of the largest law firms in the world and one of the oldest boutique patent law firms in the United States.

Posted by Bill | October 30, 2024 | Hired Attorney
Bill Lang is an amazing patent attorney. His understanding of the law is encyclopedic, not only in volume but in depth and nuance. In addition to understanding the law and intricacies of the bureaucracy, his sharp mind instantly grasps complex mechanical concepts. It was my fortune to have o...

I had a few questions about intellectual property infringement and could not find an accurate explanation online. Stumbled across this site and sent William a message. He called me within the hour and answered all my questions. He's a very nice guy and I really like the idea of this site for question...

I had an idea and I was searching for a patent attorney. From my first meeting it was clear, I was at the right place and able to have Attorney Bill Lang as my superb resource for having my patent prepared and prosecuted with to a successful outcome. My original experience in patent law and creati...

Mr. Lang was very professional in his interactions with me. He followed up on all communication with me and the patent office in a timely manner and was instrumental in ultimately achieving my patent. He was strait forward in our initial consultation and all estimates and pricing for his services. If...

I was in a difficult situation with a much bigger company trying to bully me into an onerous patent infringement agreement. Bill was able to negotiate a much better deal that didn't handcuff our business. His expertise was impressive and really reduced the stress level. I highly recommend him.
"Bill represented my firm in an untrue accusation of copyright infringement. He was quick and compassionate. He included my considerations in his arguments. He followed up with each communication. I really appreciated his client communication with me and his professionalism. I highly endorse Bill!"
"Mr. William is undoubtedly a top notch attorney who has skillfully mastered his primary area of practice over the course of his professional experience. His sharp critical thinking and flawless work ethic are perhaps the key qualities which ensured the success of a remarkable number of his cases. I endorse this lawyer and encourage anyone who needs superior legal representation to opt for his services."
"I have referred several business connections and clients to Attorney Lang, who always provides a well-crafted response, attention to detail, and thorough and competent representation."
"I've read nearly a hundred of Attorney Lang's responses to Avvo questions. Without exception, his responses are legally sound, insightful, wise and -- most important -- business savvy. I strongly endorse him and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone seeking intellectual property advice."
"Bill is the consummate patent attorney whom I hold in highest regard for his progress and professional success - which I watched grow first hand. I first met Bill as a law firm associate where I supervised his always meticulous work - because of that attention to detail, he also gets the big picture, and translates those details into meaningful, common sense help for clients. He understands the importance of every step of the legal process as well as how it fits into a client's business; as a further testament to both his character and professional judgment, Bill never lets a detail slide if he feels he does not fully understand its import. Since working with Bill, my legal practice focus evolved to Trademarks exclusively, and so I can without hesitation say that should I need a patent application prepared I would trust Bill with all mine. On a personal note, I always thanked him for introducing me to the enjoyment of shooting skeet. Bill's an all around guy and family man."
"I endorse Attorney Lang. We often post answers to the same legal inquiries on Avvo. Invariably, I agree with Mr. Land's answers. His advice is knowledgable, well thought out, detailed and complete."
"I endorse this lawyer. His answers on this forum are thorough as it relates to the subject matter and consistently accurate."
"Here’s why I am endorsing Mr. Lang…I’m a relatively new attorney, some of my practice areas overlap with areas where Mr. Lang posts replies to Avvo questions, and every time I read one of his answers I’m impressed, impressed with his legal knowledge, his demeanor, and his word crafting skills. Quite frankly, I’ve learned more from his posts than the many CLE’s I’ve paid for. And I can tell from the quality of his posts, he has no need of my endorsement nor to be taking his time in answering Avvo questions. But he does and I’m thankful for it. And if you’re in need of IP legal services (patent, trademark, copyright, trade secrecy, etc.), Mr. Lang is one of the first places I’d go for a consultation."
"Interacting with William is a pleasure, and I always come away with a new respect for his depth of knowledge and his ability to navigate a situation. I hope to do more work with him in the future."
"I was a co-worker of attorney William F. Lang IV in two law firms. I found him to be a conscientious, dedicated, hardworking, ethical, and skilled professional."
"Sometimes one Avvo answer is enough. The answer of Mr. Lang was not only accurate and analytic, it was so customized to the needs of the Avvo asker as to convey considerable value. These are all qualities that every client would look for when hiring an attorney."
"Bill is a very competent attorney who has integrity and ethics. I previously worked with Bill at a prior law firm and I have kept in touch with him ever since. He is a master of his craft."
