friendly, helpful intellectual property advice

IP attorney Jason Cruz spend an amazing 20 minutes on the phone with me today hearing about my latest venture and helping me understand IP requirements for my specific situation and business risks involved for my company. He listened well, asked insightful questions, and gave me a quick summary of wh...at he saw as the issues and my next steps. He was super peppy and upbeat and all around nice. When we need legal support, I will definitely call him for an appointment.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
