John Gerrard Tolomei

We approached one of the largest firms in the country to do our patent filing as a start-up because we did not want to waste precious time and resources on educating the attorneys on our industry or on our technology. We found the perfect match in John Tolomei and the team at Perkins Coie. After on...ly a couple "brain dump" sessions, John was able to formulate a comprehensive outline of what our patent would look like from start to finish. As a start-up, we assumed that we were at the bottom of the food chain when it came to getting our patents filed before the U.S. patent law was switching to a "first to file" system. John was assigned to our patent filing case and truly made it his own project. He worked with us at our convenience and did not settle for "good enough". He was very open to suggestion and also great at conveying technical information in an understandable way. John was diligent about keeping us in the loop and informed about the patent process. With patents, filing is only the beginning. We look forward to continuing our relationship with John throughout the next steps.
