Thomas J Nikolai

Have worked with Tom on a number of device patents and trademarks in the medical diagnostics market for more than thirty years. More recently I've consulted with him on a number of novel technologies for the health and fitness markets. Tom is extraordinarily skilled in crafting and defending complex ...device and method claims that enabled my business to successfully protect the intellectual property in our core product line.

It IS possible to say too much about Tom Nikolai! One risks appearing uncritically enthusiastic. However, Tom has served me extremely well. He has been my patent lawyer for many years and has never disappointed, despite a wide variety of subjects. He has always been willing and able to educate h...imself in broad topics, as well as in details. Tom has been flexible in his thinking and as new aspects and uses emerged while we were consulting, he was willing to modify text and even draft additional applications with important new claims. I refer specifically to our two recent blood access patents, that appear to have unlimited potential in the vital area of health care. Moreover, Tom is forever patient with an inventor of limited means and unlimited ambition. I therefore cannot in fact, recommend him too highly.

I have been working with Tom Nikolai for about 30 years, applied for and obtained over 15 utility patents. It was and still is a great experience working with Tom; he understands the designs I generate and writes the application with the claims to fit my thinking with great precision as I see. Most ...of my patents have seen great commercial success.
