Successful Association with John Knoble, Esquire

I have dealt with John Knoble for over 15 years and was probably one of his first customers when he formed his own practice in Philadelphia in early 1998. He educated and guided me through the patent process and together we were successful in obtaining many patents for my previous company and more re...cently for me personally as I continue inventing. John had previously served as a USPTO examiner and his extensive knowledge of the system and the people working in the patent office helped considerably on those occasions when we visited the USPTO to meet with patent examiners to argue a case. His mechanical engineering background also came in handy as he learned about my field of specialty and wrote patents pertaining to my business. I highly recommend John for your patent and intellectual property needs.

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.
