Responsive and patient with all my questions

My organization needed an agreement drawn up in regards to donating publications to a university. Sharon was/is patient with all my questions. Plus, she was very responsive. If we have any issues in the future, Sharon will be the first lawyer i call!

Insightful Intellectual Property, Trademark, or Patent Attorney

I have known and worked with Sharon for many years. She is smart, competent, and easy to work with. She has provided legal advice and helped guide the non-profit company, Youth Fitness Coalition Inc. for over a decade. If you need a patent, TM, or Intellectual Property attorney, I highly recommend Sh...aron Adams.

Sharon Jane Adam's profile

In the past I have consulted another patent attorney about my invention, tho’ he had an academic degree in mechanical engineering, to my amazement he had a difficulty in conceptualizing the merit of my invention. His question was [what are you trying to patent?] After I have explained the unique mech...anical functioning of my device and for the reason it was invented he still thought that I had nothing much to patent. On the other hand Sharon Jane Adams Patent attorney, had no trouble in grasping and comprehending the concept of my invention, and neither did the patent examiner I also found her to be well mechanically inclined and able to grasp and understand mechanical functioning, so As a result she was effective in obtaining three overlapping patents in my behalf.

A job well done

As a client, I valued her detailed approach and keeping me informed throughout the entire process. I'd recommend her to anyone looking to hire a capable attorney to handle trademarking.

Sharon is great at what she does

I have been working with Sharon Adams since 2009. She has assisted me in filing a trademark application, completing the application process, successfully registering a trademark and protecting my trademark. From my experience, Sharon's advice is always honest and her expertise proves to be superior. ...I would highly recommend consulting with Sharon Adams.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Sharon and I were opposing counsel on a matter that started about ten years ago. I found her knowledgeable about the law and attuned to the best interests of her client. I have referred several patent prosecutions (which I don't do) to her, and received only good feedback on them. I would recommend her again in a heartbeat."

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
