Thoughtfully Sharp

Living in rural Northern New York, I could find no lawyer for 400 miles to handle a sticky copyright case. Lawyer Match took me to Colorado and Paul Dunlap serendipitously. His half hour free consultation was witty, learned and sympathetic. I hired him sight unseen, or more accurately, I signed on ...as his assistant. He directed me to various web sites to sleuth out records to feed into his assessments, bringing the client into the heart of the matter, and controlling the hourly fees. I learned a lot about probate, copyright filings and law. Most significantly he became the silent third party overlooking correspondence between myself and a recalcitrant agent, coaching my questions and sifting responses, until a strategy for success became clear. It was an emotional conclusion, since many times during the process I despaired.. All the time in emails and on phone calls he was friendly, sympathetic, sharp eyed. He was the man in the client's corner over a thousand miles away. The intricacies of the law he's mastered remain baffling to me. How he got the rabbit out of the hat seems magic. You're not going to find a better lawyer no matter where you live.

First time

Did not know him and had little knowledge about process, we met asked several questions and he formulated a plan. Mr. Dunlap within our time frame came up and had process completed. We finalized application in a McDonalds parking lot. He has great knowledge, honest and a hard worker for his client.... I would hire him again. JM

"I endorse this lawyer. Paul is an experienced and very competent lawyer with impeccable integrity. As a fellow intellectual property law attorney, I would not hesitate to refer a potential client to Paul if I had a conflict of interest which would prevent me from serving the potential client. I know that they would be in good hands with Paul. I consider Paul a friend and one to whom I can turn to for advice and counsel."
