Francis John Ciaramella is amazing.

I cannot recommend Francis John Ciaramella highly enough. He helped me successfully trademark USA Dental and has continued to be an invaluable resource ever since. What could have been a complicated and stressful process was made simple, straightforward, and even enjoyable thanks to his expertise and... guidance. One of the things I appreciate most is that he doesn't just help you obtain a trademark and disappear. He has been by my side year after year, making sure renewals and ongoing trademark maintenance are handled seamlessly and on time. That level of professionalism and follow through is rare. Francis is knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely cares about protecting his clients' businesses. If you're looking for an attorney to help with trademarks, intellectual property, or brand protection, I would absolutely trust Francis with the job. Thank you for helping protect and grow the USA Dental brand!

Renewal on time!

I've had a trademark for 20 years and easily renewed it myself a few times. Suddenly, this year, the USPTO examiner declared I was missing examples! For six months I worried about what to do but had to focus on my company. Frank was one of many attorneys who sent me emails offering their services... but was the only one who kept reminding me from time to time. As the deadline approached with just a week or two to go I emailed him back. He knew exactly what the problem was, gave me a reasonable price, told me what he needed and as soon as I got the examples scanned and sent to him, he was able to file before the deadline. Within days, the USPTO accepted the examples and my trademark was renewed!

THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!!

I decided to start a clothing business. I came up with a meaningful name and a logo that was the perfect representation of my company. So, I decided to trademark the name and logo on my own. I began creating different designs for the brand and even reached out to a few vendors to start placing my ord...ers. Then boom! I received a letter from the USPTO notifying me that someone else has a similar name and similar logo. I’d already fallen in love with the name and logo and I wasn’t willing to let it go. But this was my first time starting a business, so I didn’t know what to do or where to even start. I started looking for an attorney. Every attorney I contacted either didn’t respond or didn’t return my phone call. I don’t remember how I stumbled across Mr. Ciaramella’s number but I’m glad I did. When I reached out to him, I instantly knew that he was going to be my attorney. Although I knew my chances of keeping the name and logo were extremely slim, his knowledge and honesty gave me hope to fight to keep the name and logo. I felt choosing him was the right decision. I never had to reach out to him first because he would consistently keep me updated on what was happening or what was to come during the process. Today I just received the fantastic news that my trademark was accepted and is entitled to registration. I’m so excited! I have so much more that I want to do so this definitely won’t be our last ride. Frank Ciaramella, I just want to say thank you so much for representing my company.

Intellectual property, Litigation, Contracts and agreements

Francis handled our trademark application in the best possible way. We contacted him to help us combine to previous applications. He worked independently and quickly
