Timothy Edward Siegel

I hired Tim for three patent applications in the past several years and satisfied very much with his jobs. He gave me good advise during the patent application writing and fought with examiners skillfully. My three applications have been granted with patents including a difficult one won through appe...al. He charged reasonably and worked with high efficiency in my cases. I hired several patent attorneys in my carrier so far and rank him the best one.

Our experience with Tim Siegel in the prosecution of the Company patents has been an excellent one. He is an experienced attorney that I have known for over 15 years, and who has filed four patents for us to this point. He easily understands the technical aspects of each patent, conducts thorough ...search of relevant prior IP, and completes the filings, and any USPTO responses in a timely manner. At a time when the USPTO has tightened the criteria for issuance of new patents we have not had any rejections. He is experienced in filing in foreign patent offices on a worldwide basis. He has deep knowledge of patent law and is able to communicate in simple terms the implications of any issues that may arise. Having worked with a number of other attorneys I can also state that his fees are reasonable. Overall I would highly recommend Tim to any seeking a competent patent attorney.

As a deadline was looming I contacted Tim Siegel to continue a patent application started by another attorney who became seriously ill. I was relieved when he agreed to meet with me later that afternoon. At the first meeting I was sold -- his enthusiasm and knowledge exceeded my expectations. The... patent describes a rather technical method and within the first 10 minutes of my description Tim was already completing my sentences. No one previously had grasped it so quickly. We made the deadline and now it's a waiting game. Regardless of how it turns out, I feel the application is a much stronger one after Tim's modifications. Another thing -- his fees are very reasonable and he is most generous with his time. Tim may shoot me for saying this -- in my previous dealings with patent lawyers they charged me for every phone call and email (in 15 minute blocks) even when they initiated the contact and my response was a simple 'yes' or 'no'. Tim doesn't operate that way. At our first meeting he described his fee structure based on how long he thought it would take -- and then that was it. I more than got my money's worth. I would definitely recommend using Tim Siegel -- I will again, too.
