Posted by François | March 01, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Patent Application

His firms attention to detail and preparation is excellent! Highly recommended!

I hired Craige's firm in tandem with an attorney in NY based on the recommendation of a partner at Barton LLP who understood that I needed representation at a reasonable cost without losing the expertise of an experienced attorney. Craige's attention to detail along with his associates work on our... patent application was so well done that when we were singed on by the #1 tech law firm in the country prior to our first seed funding they were very impressed with what Craige's form had accomplished for us. His pricing is reasonable for a start up that's bootstrapping or for individuals with a patentable idea. He's very experienced in the process of originating the details of the application. His firms work is very precise!

Superb Attention to Detail

Craige and his team worked very thoroughly and efficiently to expertly draft my patent filing documents. His documentation clearly reflected his commanding grasp on the complexities and nuances of my project with great detail. It was a pleasure working with such a great team and I would highly recomm...end them to anyone looking to protect their intellectual property.

Excellent Work

Craig is one of the best patent attorneys I've worked with. There was a minimum of fuss, very straightforward, and got our patent issued in a little over a year. Will definitely use Craig again for our next IP work.
