Ronald Christopher Peil's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer. Chris brings some well-developed soft skills to the table that enhance his ability to work effectively with clients. Because he values the client’s time, he listens very actively, asking lots of questions and making sure that he understands perfectly what the client is describing. Because of this, he conducts interviews very efficiently and needs little face time with the client after an initial disclosure interview. He also takes time to explain things very carefully without a lot of attorney jargon, acronyms, and such. He also works hard to create a balanced picture of what to expect during a patent prosecution – how long, obstacles that could come up, and budgeting, to name a few. Because he works hard to eliminate surprises, the client is generally more comfortable with the whole process."
"I endorse Chris Piel. When it comes to patent law, clients and attorneys like myself find the whole process to be confusing; we are dealing with the unknown. Patent law has its own terminology and can seem arcane even for those who are familiar with “legal jargon.” Chris has the unique ability to communicate and explain the patent process in everyday language. This is one of the reasons why Chris picks up cases that are referred to him from many lawyers who are confident in his expertise and his ability to provide quality representation. Another important factor for clients, besides the patent process, is the cost to obtain the issued patent. This can be very difficult to predict. Chris does what he can to minimize uncertainty by providing a blended billing structure, involving fixed fees, caps, and hourly billing. He is very conscientious about making sure that his clients are informed about all aspects of their case."
"I endorse this lawyer."
