Amazing experience with Andrew!
Andrew was actually the second attorney I contacted for an IP issue that I was involved in.

Graphic Design Contracts
Andy was very thorough in helping me understand the contract that he drafted for my business. This contract will help protect my intellectual property, and my clients IP. Highly recommend using Andy for anything that is Copyright, Trademark or IP related!

Intelligent, Generous, Experienced - Just Exceptional

Attentive and Personable!
I hired Andrew to help me trademark various business titles and logos. As a 'first-timer' to this world, I wasn't sure what to expect but do admit I prepared myself to be completely lost-in-the-sauce with lawyer lingo. Not with Andrew! He broke everything down for me so I could understand the process...
"Andy's expertise is in no way limited to intellectual property, copyright, and trademark applications. He is adept in several legal fields. More importantly, he truly understands his colleagues and clients and simplifies the process in a way that makes sense. Further, he is philanthropic by nature and can always be seen giving back to his communities and fellow veterans. Andy is a trustworthy, honest, and considerate colleague. He helped my husband and I on an matter that was beyond my scope of practice and helped ease my concerns over the matter. I will never hesitate to refer my clients, friends, and family to Andy."
"Andy is an excellent attorney. I have worked with him on several matters and can state unequivocally he is an excellent litigator and is always focused on his client's best interests."
"Andrew has a sharp legal mind. He thinks about problems from many different angles and is able to provide effective counsel."
"Andy is a great lawyer and a great person. He is excellent at analyzing cases and coming up with a practical game plan to reaching a resolution. He is always trying to find solutions that are in his client's best interest. I highly recommend Andy!"
